For love and money, Browning will try for a "greenpeat" in the world championships later this month. After Tall in tle Saddle, may he sashay into Munich with all guns blazing. 2, record 1, English, - threepeat

This is really a neologism of form. The word "threepeat" is really a blending of two existing words (three + repeat). These two words have been blended into one word, so that a shorter way of saying "to repeat something three consecutive times" is formed. 1, record 1, English, - threepeat
