- List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_triathlon abstract "Triathlon has been an official Olympic sport since its debut at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia. Its inclusion in the Summer Olympic Games program was the quickest of any sport: the International Triathlon Union (ITU) was founded in 1989 and five years later, on 4 September 1994, triathlon's Olympic status was approved by the 103rd International Olympic Committee Session, in Paris. The variant contested at the Olympics (called Olympic distance) is composed of a 1,500-meter (4,921 ft) swim, followed by a 40-kilometer (25 mi) bicycle ride, and a final 10 km (6 mi) run leg. The distances were chosen based on the toughest events from each of the sports that constitute triathlon.Since 2000, the triathlon competition consists of an event for men and another for women. The inaugural women's event was the first to be held during the Sydney Games, and crowned Swiss triathlete Brigitte McMahon as the first Olympic champion, over the heavy-favorite Australians. The following day, Simon Whitfield of Canada, who was not considered one of the favorites, came from behind and took the men's gold medal with a 200-meter sprint finish. In a similar fashion, long-distance specialist Kate Allen of Austria secured the women's Olympic title in 2004. New Zealand's strength in the sport was demonstrated when the nation placed two men in the first positions: Hamish Carter and Bevan Docherty won the gold and silver medals, respectively. At the 2008 Summer Olympics, Whitfield was on the verge of repeating the 2000 outcome, but this time he could not keep his lead over Jan Frodeno of Germany in the final meters, and was pipped to the gold medal. The Australian power in women's triathlon was finally consecrated at the Beijing Games, when three-time world champion and favorite Emma Snowsill clinched the gold medal and Emma Moffatt secured the bronze.After securing a second career Olympic medal in Beijing, Simon Whitfield (one gold and one silver) and Bevan Docherty (one silver and one bronze) are the only triathletes to have won more than one Olympic medal.".
