In 2007 he won the Russian Championship and the World Championship in the team category in Tiszaújváros. In 2009, Dmitry Polyanski won the bronze medal at the Russian Championships in Penza (Olympic Distance),[2] in 2010 he gave precedence to the Elite Cup in Hy-Vee and did not take part in the competition in Penza.

In 2010, Polyanski also took part in the French Club Championship Series Lyonnaise des Eaux, representing the club Saint-Raphaël Tri. At the first triathlon of this circuit in Dunkirk, Polyanski placed 5th and was the best triathlete of his club, which placed 5th in the club ranking.[3] Incidentally, among the five triathletes representing Saint-Raphaël Tri there was not even one French triathlete, a situation which was allowed in the year 2010 by the Réglementation Sportive but will be forbidden from 2010/2011 on, and was practically impossible up to the previous season. At the triathlon in Tourangeaux (29 August 2010) Polyanski placed 5th and at the Grand Final in La Baule (Triathlon Audencia, 18 September 2010) he placed 32nd.

Polyanski is the elder brother of Igor Polyanski, also a professional triathlete, representing Saint-Raphaël Tri. In 2007 Dmitry married the Ukrainian professional triathlete Anastasiya née Yatsenko,[4] with whom he lives in Penza. In 2011, Dmitry, his wife, his brother and Igor's girl friend Lyubov Ivanovskaya will represent Saint-Raphaël Triathlon in the Club Championship Series Lyonnaise des Eaux.
