TRIATHLON SEASON: Cycling is great fun. But when combined with swimming and running, it becomes just one leg of one of the fastest-growing sports in the country. Local triathletes have been training for months. and the first major outdoor triathlon of the year takes place Saturday at Sand Hollow State Park.

The St. George Triathlon will attract more than 1,000 athletes, with some hoping to simply complete the event and others chasing personal bests or using the day as a training race for a bigger event down the road.

The Women of Steel Triathlon, again for the ladies only, will be held a week later at the American Fork Fitness Center.
