I love sports. I love playing them, watching them, even coaching them. But what I love most about sports is the fun of playing them. This is why I chose to create a blog about the fabled Ancient Greek Pentathlon. I chose this topic because sports and games are awesome. No offense, couch potatoes. I love being outdoors and being active. What better topic to choose than the Pentathlon? When I decided to create this blog, I really had no idea what a Pentathlon is. What I really wanted to know is how the pentathlon evolved over the centuries. I also wanted to know if the pentathlon inspired the Olympics. If so, how? My third question is, why did the Greeks hold the pentathlon? My fourth and final question that has been nagging me ever since, is, did they really compete naked? They had clothes right? Why, Greeks? Why?
