From Wikipedia (not copyrighted material): Triathlon is considered by some to have its beginnings in 1920s France. According to triathlon historian and author Scott Tinley , the origin of triathlon is attributed to a race during the 1920s-1930s that was called variously "Les trois sports", "La Course des Débrouillards", and "La course des Touche à Tout." This race is held every year in France near Joinville-le-Pont, in Meulan and Poissy.
