I NEED YOUR HELP AGAIN

HI FRIENDS.
i NEED YOUR HELP AGAIN. IS IT POSSIBLE TO SAY " I LIKE TRIATHLON BECAUSE IS AN ALL-ROUND SPORT " OR IT IS BETTER TO SAY " I LIKE TRIATHLON BECAUSE IT IS A COMPLETE SPORT ".
" COMPLETE " SOUNDS TOO MUCH SPANISH I WOULD LIKE TO FIND AN ACCURATE WORD WHICH MEANS THE SAME BUT MY ONLY KNOWN WORD IS ALL -ROUND HOWEVER I DONT KNOW IF IT IS ACCURATE FOR SPORT,
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP |

�All-round sport � sounds fine to me. Perhaps even better:
"I like the triathlon because it is a good all-round sport".

It �ll be "all-round sport". No sport can objectively be "complete" - what could possibly be the parameters? Complete sounds more like a subjective way of describing any sport. eg. "I think football is a complete sport - it has action and excitement, it �s good for your body, builds good relationships with teammates. But golf doesn�t even come close."
