Ohio triathlete rocks jorts, places 2nd!

Running, swimming, and biking a triathlon is tough enough—but James Miller from Ohio did it all in a pair of jorts after losing a bet, and still finished second! He and his friend made a deal to keep each other accountable with their fitness goals, and the loser had to race in denim shorts. Despite the heat and discomfort, Miller powered through, showing what sticking to your word and a little friendly competition can do. Would you ever take on a challenge like this for a bet? What’s the wildest dare you’ve followed through on? #Sports #Ohio #Triathlon

Peaty’s Grit: From Pool King to Triathlon Rookie

Wow, Adam Peaty—aka the breaststroke GOAT—just tackled his first-ever triathlon at the T100 in London! Watching him stumble across the finish, then hug his fiancée Holly (yes, Gordon Ramsay’s daughter!) and share a laugh with the chef himself, was pure sports drama. Peaty called it the hardest thing he’s ever done, but says he’d do it again. Respect for stepping out of his comfort zone! Anyone else think this family rivalry with Ramsay could become a new tradition? #Sports #AdamPeaty #Triathlon

How Avarie Faulkner balanced triathlon and the Air Force

Juggling Division I triathlon, a math degree, and Air Force ROTC, Avarie Faulkner made the most of her time at the University of Denver. She not only set a school record for most triathlon races started, but also graduated as a commissioned Air Force officer—following a family tradition. Her story is a real-life example of what’s possible with teamwork, flexibility, and a lot of determination. Anyone else ever tried to balance two big commitments at once? What helped you get through it? Let’s hear your stories! #Sports #Denver #Triathlon

Cleveland triathlete races in jorts—here’s why

James Miller turned heads at the Tri CLE Rock Roll Run by completing his first triathlon in jean shorts—all because of a lost bet with friends. What started as a push-up challenge at a Cavs game became a lesson in accountability and friendship. Miller’s commitment (and discomfort!) got his crew talking about how much easier it is to chase goals with a supportive group. Even though he didn’t win the bet, he finished second in the race, proving that sometimes, a little friendly competition and encouragement can push us further than we think. Would you take on a challenge like this for your friends? #Sports #Cleveland #Triathlon

Long Beach triathlon unites for kids’ cancer

More than 1,700 athletes hit the streets and shores of Long Beach, raising over $700,000 for pediatric cancer research at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. This year’s Legacy Triathlon wasn’t just about competition—it was about community, with everyone from first-timers to corporate teams (Netflix, Disney, SpaceX, and more) joining in. After a tough wildfire season, local firefighters were honored with free entries, making the event even more meaningful. It’s inspiring to see sports, charity, and gratitude come together. What do you think—should more local events give back like this? #Sports #LongBeach #Triathlon
