    Time allowed: 1 hour 30 minutes
    This examination paper has two tasks. You must complete both tasks.

    Task 1 Reading into writing task


    You want to improve your fitness. Read the text below and then, in your own words, write a letter
    (approximately 150 words) to a friend, explaining:
    i) what a triathlon is
    ii) why you want to enter a triathlon competition and
    iii) how you will include regular training in your daily life.

    Triathlons for fitness


    At 27 years old, Neil Pokorny was a successful manager for an American car company, but he
    was quickly losing his fitness and not going to the gym.
    One day I just decided I wanted to get fit again, and I signed up for a triathlon, an event
    that includes swimming, cycling and running, Pokorny said. He began training, slowly but
    regularly.
    For me, it wasnt easy because I was travelling for work all the time. But I told myself that I
    wanted to do an hour of something every day, Pokorny said. When I travel, I can go running
    from my hotel, and when I am at home, I can go cycling.
    Pokornys story is not unusual. Hes part of a big movement towards the sport of triathlon,
    which is becoming the new marathon. USA Triathlons members have increased from 50,000
    to 135,000 over the last five years.
    This sport, just like the athletes, comes in all shapes and sizes, from the 15-hour-long distance
    to the beginner-level distance. The most popular distance is composed of a 500 metre swim, a
    19km bike ride and a 5km run.
    Its a fun sport, says Pokorny, and the people who practice it are very cool.
