Abstract des Autors

The aim of this project was to profile elite senior and junior triathletes competing in the 1997 World Triathlon Championships held in Perth, Western Australia. This event was held over the 'classic' distances of a 1500m swim, 40km cycle and 10km run. The overall project forms part of a comparison of triathletes with their counterparts in the discrete disciplines of swimming, cycling and running in terms of body type, composition and proportionality. However, this short communication presents the descriptive statistics of triathletes which may be used for athlete profiling. Verf.-Referat
