Countdown to Maui is On!!
The greatest off-road triathlon in the world is 23 days away.
On October 23, 2016 a sold-out field featuring more than 800 of the best professional and amateur off-roaders from 46 countries will gather on the sand at D.T. Fleming Beach in Kapalua to chase the sports ultimate title – the XTERRA World Championship.
As the culmination of 30 qualifying events held around the globe “Worlds” is one massive celebration for those who perpetuate the healthy, active, and adventurous Live More lifestyle.
It’s a 1.5km swim, 32km mountain bike, and 10.5km trail run, and while the distances stay basically the same year-after-year, the conditions never are. That’s the beauty of off-road racing, the perpetually evolving challenge of racing against the unknown.
Will northwest swells bring shore-pounding waves? Will recent rains make the bike course a muddy mess or two weeks of dry days turn it into a dusty bowl? Will the Maui heat make it a suffer-fest for all?
We’ll find out four Sunday’s from now but one thing is certain, in XTERRA it’s you vs. Mother Nature … and she is unstoppable, unbeatable, and unbreakable. Hype Video
