My daughter unexpectedly came to New York to visit us on Sunday. We already had plans to see the Wicked at 2:00 PM and I was sure that I wouldn't be able to get a ticket for her that quickly. We called Ticket Luck and what do you know? They arranged for tickets on a one day notice. Unbelievable service!"

Details of Olympics Triathlon and the Ticket Luck value

Olympics Triathlon
With a swimming suit, swimming goggles, a bicycle with a helmet and a pair of running shoes triathlon is all but physical endurance. Triathlons having three parts swimming, cycling, and running take place right after one another. That's all you need Swim your best Run your best Cycle your best.

In Olympics triathlon the athletes swim for about one mile, cycle for 25 miles, and then run for about six miles. The very first triathlon was in California in 1974. In 2000 triathlon was to become an Olympic event.

The Olympic triathlon has two medal events. One is for men and other for women. Both cover the same distances of 1.5 km, 40 km, and 10km. Mass starts are used and drafting is allowed during the cycling phase.

Triathlon made its Olympic Games debut at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia. The sport consists of three different disciplines, competed consecutively. The Olympic distances for the three disciplines are: Swimming 1500 metres Road cycling 40 kilometres Road running 10 kilometres

The 24th Olympic games saw the first appearance of the triathlon. 48 women and 52 men competed in separate triathlons. The distances used were the "international" or "standard" ones, with a 1.5 kilometre swim, 40 kilometre cycle, and a 10 kilometre run. The second triathlon was identical to the first in distance, but the 100-athlete quota was evened between 50 women and 50 men.

Qualification spots in the triathlon are allotted to National Olympic Committees rather than to individual athletes. There are five ways for NOCs to earn spots in the triathlon. NOCs can earn a maximum of three spots, though only nine nations may earn that. Nations beyond that may earn only two spots. If a nation would be the tenth or later to earn a third spot, it loses that spot.

The first five spots go to the winners of the five regional qualifying tournaments. Three more spots go to the top three triathletes of the most recent Triathlon World Championships, though any athlete that won a regional tournament is skipped in that determination. The next 39 places go to the NOCs of those athletes highest in the ITU ranking. A forty-eighth place is for the host country if it has not already received a spot or to the next highest ranked athlete if the host country has. The final two places are awarded by the Tripartite Commission.

At the 2004 Summer Olympics, the triathlon events were held at the Vouliagmeni Olympic Centre. Fifty triathletes contested the female event and the same number contested the male event thus making up a total of 100 competitors.

Each competitor starts the event with a 1500 metre swim course, followed by a 40 kilometre road bicycle race and finish with a 10 kilometre road run. Both leg transitions are performed on a special transition area, under judge's scrutiny and the transition duration is added to the final time. A pre-Olympic test event was staged over the Olympic course in October 2003 with Denmark's Rasmus Henning and Australia's Michellie Jones winning the men's and women's events.
