XTERRA Norway, August 5th

On August 5th, XTERRA will head to the Norefjell Ski & Spa. Four separate races will be offered, including the classic off-road triathlon, a duathlon, a kids triathlon, and a 10k trail run.

XTERRA Norway consists of a 1500 meter swim, a 30k mountain bike, and a 10k run. The swim will take place in Krøderen and will consist of two, 750 m loops. The mountain bike course will begin in Noresund and climb to the Norefjell Ski & Spa through the beautiful forests and single track the country is known for. The run will head through the natural beauty at the top of the mountain and will test athletes with steep downhills.

Athletes will compete for 26 qualification spots for the XTERRA World Championships in Maui in October.

The kids’ triathlon will take place in the water beneath the hotel so parents can follow their children’s progress, and the trail will stay close to the spa. Youth will swim for 150 m, ride for 5k, and run for 2k.

The duathlon will follow the triathlon route but will substitute the swim with a 1k run. The trail run will cover the same spectacular trails as in the triathlon.
