What are the disciplines of Pentathlon?

Modern Pentathlon consists of Fencing, Obstacle, Swimming and Laser Run.

What discipline changed?

In 2022, UIPM Congress voted to introduce Obstacle replacing Riding. After Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the new format has been introduced at all levels.

Is it at the Olympic Games?

Yes! Since 1912 Olympic Games in Stockholm.

Where does it come from?

The sport was invented by French baron Pierre de Coubertin - the founder of Modern Olympic Games. The disciplines embraced the spirit of the ancient Pentathlon and recreated the perfect soldier. It was De Coubertin's belief that it “tested a man’s moral qualities as much as his physical resources and skills, producing thereby the ideal, complete athlete.”

What defines a pentathlete?

Pentathletes are the most versatile and complete athletes in the world! This sport is the ultimate test of an athlete's fitness, courage and skill.

How to start training?

Get in touch with your national federation to hear about local opportunities. You can also DM us for information. The sport is like a pyramid, so you don't need to master all 5 disciplines at once. We run events for multi-discipline sports (Biathle, Triathle, Tetrathlon, Laser Run and Obstacle Laser Run) which form a development pyramid with Modern Pentathlon at the top.
