PENTATHLON

One athlete competing in multiple disciplines represents an ideal that has endured for 2,700 years.

Since 708 BC, pentathlon has embodied athletic versatility, celebrating the athlete who is capable across disciplines rather than defined by a single one.

First established in Ancient Greece, pentathlon gave form to the vision of the complete athlete. Over more than 2,700 years, its disciplines have evolved from the ancient pentathlon to modern pentathlon, while its central philosophy has found new expression in the rise of the hybrid athlete.

Pentathlon remains the original and enduring embodiment of the versatile athlete.

Pentathlon.com is a Débrouillard project devoted to the deep heritage and continued evolution of pentathlon, with athletic adaptability at its core. The site will continue to develop around pentathlon’s history, culture and place in contemporary sport.

Whether you’re an experienced pentathlete or new to pentathlon, welcome.
