The triple jump is an athletic event where athletes attempt to jump the farthest distance by completing three consecutive jumps. It originated in ancient Greece as a mistake during long jump measurements that inspired the creation of a new three-jump event. To perform the triple jump, athletes must run down the runway and jump off one leg, land on the same leg, then jump again before landing and jumping a third time off the opposite leg before falling into the sand pit. Competitors receive six attempts to achieve their longest distance.
