Re: Olympics triatholon free for all?
I don't think so - I was (unintentionally) at the triathlon Olympics test event last summer while taking a trip to Hyde Park with a friend! There was no ticketing, and I think it'd be impossible to ticket an event which goes all around Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace!

Triathlon
Sat 4 Aug 9am-11.40am, women Tue 7 Aug 11.30am-2pm, men
Outstanding value for no money: three disciplines jammed into the mid-sized hectarage of Hyde Park, with competitors constantly engaged in some form of swim-bike-run, the latter two in lap form. Hyde Park on a sunny day is a kind of urban heaven anyway. Chuck in athletes running 10km in swimming trunks and who could ask for more?
