All these people in the thread talking about the shark eating you do not understand how much eating an entire person is going to impact a shark's time for the triathalon.
A shark could swim faster than me, but I could probably run faster than a shark. So in a triathlon, it would all come down to who is the better cyclist.

I love everything about shark week. Decorating the shark tree, singing shark carols, having the neighbors slam the door in your face for singing the shark carols... it’s magical
