   Extractions: Just when triathlon thought it was safely in the Olympic family, news of a new threat appeared this week in the media. Or did it? Months after the last emergency, when International Triathlon Union-European Triathlon Union squabbles threatened to boot the sport from the International Olympic Committee family, a new alert materialized from an Agence France-Press article on three proposed new Olympic sports for the 2008 games in Beijing. AFP Irish writer Erskine McCullough wrote that the IOC is considering including golf, a Chinese martial arts called wushu, and seven-man rugby. The catch for triathlon is that under IOC President Jacques Rogge's new regime, the inclusion of any new sport must be matched by the departure of another sport. In his August 26 article, McCullough wrote: "The three facing the ax are believed to be triathlon, baseball and softball." ITU president Les McDonald told McCullough "If we are thrown out of the Olympics, it will kill triathlon as we know it. I simply see no logic in the plan. We are spectator friendly and television friendly. And we have a huge fan base throughout the world."

Help No sport has been expelled from the Olympic Games in the past 50 years, but triathlon - which was introduced only in Sydney last year - is on the brink of oblivion. Allegations of vote-rigging, financial irregularities and a failure to clamp down on drug cheats are all stacked against the swim-bike-run sport. Now, triathlon's top official, Les McDonald, is accused of misleading Jacques Rogge, the International Olympic Committee's new president, in a desperate attempt to save the sport's status, by suggesting that a lawsuit against triathlon's world body had been settled.

    Extractions: SYDNEY, Australia The triathlon is supposed to be a grueling event. Apparently, it's too much of three good things: a swim in the bay, a bike down the path and a jog up the street. My belief: Exercise is best in moderation. No need complicating a workout with that many changes of clothes. Anyway, agreed, the competition is tough. But I'm here to tell you it's not so easy to watch, either. Listen to my story: I set out for the men's Olympic event Sunday morning and quickly found myself trapped inside the course, ringed entirely by the cycling and running circuits. This was a problem in that I didn't feel I needed 2 1/2 hours to get a feel for the thing. That is, I had planned to leave a little shy of the medal presentation.

    http://www.idiotsguides.com/Quick-Guides/MG_Olympic_Sports/file.htm
    
    Extractions: This event isn't for slackers. It also helps if you're a morning person, too. Competition starts at 5:30 A.M. with a pistol shoot at a bull's-eye target 10 meters away. After that, there's the dueling and fencing for "first blood," where a single touch wins. Then it's on to the pool, where competitors swim a 200-meter sprint; stroke style is each competitor's choice. Without even taking time to dry off, competitors head to the equestrian arena where they each coax an unfamiliar horse around and over a course of fences. Then, after "resting" atop that horse for a bit, there's a final, two-mile cross-country run. The entire competition takes about 12 hours.

13. Montgomery To Compete In Two Olympic Sports
    Carol Montgomery was confirmed for Canada's triathlon team last month. She was confirmed after an appeal to run the 10 000 meters for Athletics Canada last week. Canadian women have competed in two olympic sports before say, for a Winter olympics and a the ITU World triathlon Championships in April, ran her olympic Astandard qualifier

    Extractions: Montgomery, runner-up in the ITU World Triathlon Championships in April, ran her Olympic A-standard qualifier on the track also that month. But in Athletics Canada's final Olympic-selection race in June, Montgomery missed the mark when lapped runners remained on the track and caused confusion. She appealed, won, and now joins Tina Connelly as Canada's female entries in the 10,000.

    Extractions: After triathlon's splendid debut at the 2000 Games in Sydney, everything seemed on the fast track for the sport to remain on the permanent roster of Olympic events. Then, one week ago, an Associated Press story datelined London ran on the front pages of sports sections of the New York Times , the Los Angeles Times, USA Today and around the country with ominous headlines: "Triathlon's Olympic status in jeopardy." In the AP article, IOC officials stated they were concerned about "infighting" that has plagued the sport and expressed dissatisfaction that the ITU had failed to respond to two letters from the IOC asking to explain and respond to the accusations made by dissatisfied factions in Europe, Canada and Latin America. IOC director general Francois Carrard was quoted by the AP as saying: "These personal quarrels damage the credibility of the sport and the athletes." IOC sports director Gilbert Felli told the AP last week: "We are still waiting for them to give some explanation. We have not had a satisfactory response." When asked if the sport could be stripped of Olympic recognition and expelled from the Olympics, Felli refused to be reassuring and simply reiterated that the IOC had the power to do so. "The Olympic Charter says that the IOC can take that decision. It's a fact."

Back to CAAWS Saturday July 8, 2000 Sports Reporter Toronto Sometimes when she thinks about it, Carol Montgomery feels overwhelmed. At 34, she's on the brink of competing in her first Olympic Games. You would think that would be enough to make anybody's heart flutter. But Montgomery has more to think about than most. She could have lost her leg last year because of an artery blockage, but she cleared that hurdle with major surgery only six months ago. Despite it all, Montgomery has qualified for not only one sport but two at the Sydney Games: triathlon and the 10,000-metre run. Neither are sports for the weak of heart.

    Extractions: N ick Radkewich runs the Garden of the Gods in the shadow of Pikes Peak on a shimmering jewel of a Rocky Mountain morning, nine months before the first Olympic triathlon in Australia. The Garden of the Gods: serpentine canyons of carmine sandstone, daggering against a cobalt-blue sky. Once a refuge for Utes and Apaches, later a beacon to prairie-schooner pilgrims, now a Colorado Springs city park and convenient workout site for athletes from the town's U.S. Olympic Training Center. The OTC provides weight-room and dining-hall sustenance to starving-artist athletes such as Radkewich, practitioners of the off-brand Olympic sports who orbit out of obscurity and into the network TV sunshine once every four years. Triathlon in particular will be soaking up the limelight at this year's Games. Thanks in large part to the sport's enormous popularity in Australia, the men's and women's races will kick off the first two nights of NBC's Olympic coverage. The course, consisting of a 1.5-kilometer open-water swim, a 40-kilometer bike ride, and a 10-kilometer run (a mere fraction of the epic distance covered in traditional Ironman-length events), winds through Sydney Harbor and past the landmark Opera House. It's the stuff of telegenic dreams, and an auspicious image boost for a sport that in the United States has largely been dismissed as the monotonous pastime of obsessive-compulsive geeks.
