Your argument is flawed in two ways.

1.) nothing on earth is more boring than handball..
2.) The winner of every sport is only decided at the finish.. thats why its called ‘the finish’

Beautifully missing the whole point of triathlon
Its about excelling in average over 4 events (swimming, cycling, running & shoe changing)

Its this challenge that makes it interesting to watch and why an elite specialist in a single event would be found out.

I would rather watch triathlon under the heat of the sun rather than the comfort of my couch

Swimming has never been a boring sport to me. I love swimming and it really keeps me alive.

@Lima, pace Richard
I’ve run 5 triathlons to date. I hope that’s OK with you. Don’t give a pickled fig if it’s not, though!
My TV set has started making weird noises and displaying moiré patterns and kind of posterized colour effects – perhaps the moment is coming when it will fail totally and I am faced with the option of going tele-free and bringing on a lifetime of hounding from database-waving licence people.
