This project is about the preparation and enthusiasm of two athletes to IRONMAN Tallin Triathlon Competition

At Masimsky Studio we are extremely caring about sport in general and its role in society. But when it comes down to Triathlon, fewer people know about this kind of Sport, even some team members in our Studio.

So that, a triathlon is an endurance multisport race consisting of swimming, cycling, and running over various distances. Triathletes compete for the fastest overall completion time, racing each segment sequentially with the time transitioning between the disciplines included. It has two most popular race formats, Triathlon 70.3 – also known as middle distance, 70.3 (total miles traveled), long or half-ironman, and Triathlon 140.6 – also known as long-distance, full distance, 140.6 (total miles traveled), or Ironman Triathlon. An Ironman Triathlon is one of a series of long-distance triathlon races organized by the World Triathlon Corporation, consisting of a 2.4-mile (3.86 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.25 km) bicycle ride, and a marathon 26.22-mile (42.20 km) run, raced in that order. It is widely considered one of the most difficult one-day sporting events in the world.

Triterra is one of the first Triathlon Clubs in Azerbaijan to organize local events, train professional triathletes, and participate in international Ironman competitions as a team.

As the Studio, in final we concluded producing something that is going to have a real and lasting impact both on the initially targeted audience – management/investors and ordinary women who may watch the video and be inspired to join the Club or just start any sports activity in their life. We decided that the best structure for this project is an interview-based mini documentary.
