Slovak term or phrase: bezhákový triatlon
This is regarding a typical middle distance triathlon with swimming, bicycling and running. The term appears to be common in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, but as I am no triathlete and there are no bilingual references, would it be fair to ask for the English equivalent of the term?

I figured the same about 15 minutes after forwarding it. I am a touring cyclist, but remember as my bicycling club began shifting from touring to racing that the term "drafting" became popular.
