Triathlon: Until recently, the German Championship (DM) in winter triathlon was held in Oberstaufen. However, since this event had been discontinued for personal reasons, the German Triathlon Union (DTU) was looking for a new venue. This has now been found: The DM in winter triathlon will be held in Faistenau, Austria.
The DM was only made possible by the cooperation of the DTU, the Austrian Triathlon Association and the organizers in Faistenau. "It would be
shame about the sport and the active people if no DTU DM had taken place.", agrees Anja Kobs, the head of organization in Faistenau. In addition to the German championship, the Salzburg state championship will also be held on January 18th in Faistenau as part of the 2nd winter triathlon.
This solution also provided a sigh of relief at DTU: “As the German Triathlon Union, we are pleased that, together with our friends from Austria, we can offer all German winter triathletes the opportunity to determine the national best in the elite and age groups.", according to Dr. Martin Engelhardt, President of the German Triathlon Union.
For all those who would like to take part in the 2nd winter triathlon on January 17th and 18th: Registration is still open - all information can be found on the relevant website: www.wintertriathlon.eu
