From this Friday 20 will live a sports environment with more than two thousand people participating or moving around the circuits accompanying the athletes in competition.

For Rubén Andrés, sportsman and Race Director in the Soriana race, "it remains in its essence with the idea that we started years ago to bring a competition of these dimensions to the center of the city." The main area will be in the Mariano Granados square, "the nerve center of Soria, and the routes are already known by athletes. " With peculiarities such as "the transition area for two thousand bicycles in the lawn of the Alameda de Cervantes, known in Soria as La Dehesa, and uneven terrain to enjoy on the bike, affordable for everyone".

The athletes return to Soria "for the good treatment, for the circuits designed to be in contact with the public and enjoy the mood of the spectators, and for a few routes with many possibilities and variables ", Andrés considers, highlighting as a great novelty for the 2018 edition" the possibility of a good time. After several years in which has not accompanied the weather this time it can be a weekend in which we have as a prize much better conditions with good temperatures and a clear improvement. "

" The movement around the discipline of the duathlon "with the bike, the companions, the paraphernalia of the competition, for a city like Soria with some fifty thousand inhabitants, is a brutal impact," says Rubén Andrés.
