At the 2004 Summer Olympics, the triathlon events were held at the Vouliagmeni Olympic Centre. Fifty triathletes contested the female event on 25 August, and the same number contested the male event on 26 August, making up a total of 100 competitors.
Each competitor starts the event with a 1500-metre open water swim course, followed by a 40 kilometre road bicycle race and finish with a 10 kilometre road run. Both leg transitions (swimming—cycling and cycling—running) are performed in a special transition area, under judge's scrutiny and the duration of the transitions is included in the final time.
A pre-Olympic test event was staged over the Olympic course in October 2003, and saw Denmark's Rasmus Henning and Australia's Michellie Jones winning the men's and women's events.
