A Unique Race: Super Sprint Troyka

The Super Sprint Troyka consists of just two stages: a qualifying round and a final. Based on the qualifying results, the 30 fastest men and 30 fastest women advanced to the final.

In the final, two last-place athletes were eliminated after each segment swimming, cycling and running. If an athlete finished among the last two, the officials stopped them in the transition area.

The winners were determined by the absolute finishing order: first, second and third place.
