Introducing: Triathlon Individual & Triathlon Relay Olympics 2024

What combines three seemingly unrelated sports of swimming, running, and cycling? It may seem like they have nothing in common but actually, there is a sport that combines all three, putting an emphasis on endurance, speed, and strength. Welcome to triathlon.   Triathlon may consist of sport activities with a well-established history (though, of course, cycling is much younger than its other two counterparts), but as a sport of its own, it is still pretty young.  Having athletes compete in three different sports isn’t exactly a new concept. In fact, even the Ancient Olympic Games included an event where athletes had to...

While gymnastics requires athletic prowess, strength, balance, and good coordination, it is also characterized with elements of artistic expression.

Greek sophist, or teacher, Philostratus described the routine in his book Gymnastics: The Ethics of an Athletic Aesthetic. In the book he claimed that gymnastics was a form of wisdom, similar to music,...

Is Softball in the Olympics 2024: What Happened

The year is 776 BC, or at least that’s what the historians claim. The very first Olympic Games are being held in the town of Olympia in honour of the mighty Zeus.

Skateboard Olympics 2024: From History to Current Results

When the ancient Greeks gathered every four years to participate in athletic games, could they ever imagine that many centuries later people would carry on the tradition?

And though the main idea behind the tournament remained the same, the Games kept evolving throughout the time, with rules, venues, and even participating sports changing.  The number of sports that were played in the arena in Ancient Greece was far lower than what the modern spectators can enjoy. The sports ancient Greek athletes competed in included...
