Registration opens tomorrow for the XXVI Zarautz Triathlon
Tomorrow, Wednesday, February 8, the deadline opens to sign up for a new edition of the Zarautz triathlon, which this year will be held on June 9. There will be only one round to sign up, so all participants who want to compete must do so starting at 10 a.m. tomorrow, Wednesday, from the Euskadi Triathlon Federation website.
This XXVI edition of the Zarautz Triathlon already has, among others, the confirmation of Eneko Llanos, Mathias Hecht, Mikel Elguezabal, Hektor Llanos, Jon Unanue or Francesc Godoy, who will fight for the winner's txapela. Once again, we are facing a high-level sporting spectacle in Zarautz.
The registration price will be 110 euros plus two euros for the chip rental. In principle, a place is reserved for 650 participants, although the organization reserves 20 places. Whoever signs up now and chooses to unsubscribe must notify them before April 15, with the organizers returning 50% of the registration fee. From that date there will be no returns.
In order to participate, you must have a valid state or Euskadi license, since it is mandatory to have a license to compete in the BH Zarauzko Triatloia 2012. Anyone who has problems with the license should contact their Federation. And for any other type of problem and registrations, you must write to the Federation of Euskadi: registrations@triatloi.org.
The registration period will be open until May 31 or until places are sold out. Once registration is closed, the triathletes on the waiting list will be admitted in strict order of registration. The final list of registered participants will be published on May 31.
In the last edition Cat Morrison, holder of seven world duathlon titles, and Clemente Alonso from Salamanca were the winners. The victory of the Scottish woman from Glasgow was in all the pools, due to her enormous class and the unbalancing dominance that she exerts in the cycling and running segments. In the men's category, the candidate to win was Eneko Llanos from Vitoria, who lost by a margin of 38 seconds. The key moment of the triathlon occurred in the second half of the 20-kilometer athletic test through the center of Zarautz, in which Alonso - 32 years old, resident in Madrid - exhibited himself, managing to surpass the Alava triathlete.
