A couple of weeks ago I was pretty psyched to see what happened at the Olympic Test Event in Paris. Yet. Triathloning isn’t new to downtown Paris. The first Triathlon International de Paris took place on 13th September 1986.

And the Triathlon Hauts de Seine on the Ile de Puteaux was earlier in the 1986 season. There were also ITU World Cup races in 1991 and 1996. And a few French Grand Prix events. I’ll cover all of those triathlons in the future.

Today let’s look at what happened at the first Triathlon International de Paris. Before covering those other races in future episodes.
