It’s a big month of events and it all kicks off this weekend. ITU’s ‘super September’ includes round 11 of the BG Triathlon World Cup series, a Duathlon world championships and three continental championships. Much of the focus will be in Europe as nine of the 11 events in September will be staged in Europe.
The action gets going this weekend with the Long Distance Triathlon European Championships from Gerardmer, France where Paul Amey, Duathlon world champion from 2007 headlines the elite men’s field. Many big names and Olympians will be competing in the Under23 European Championships from Pulpi, Spain also this weekend.
Not to be forgotten is the ITU Triathlon Premium European Cup from Kedzierzyn Kozle, Poland where almost a dozen Olympians from Beijing have returned and are getting back into ITU racing.
