Test swimming in the Main-Donau Canal: Triathletes start the competition!

in Roth is very busy. The Challenge Roth throws its shadows ahead and the first triathletes already have the opportunity to test the swimming route in the Main-Donau Canal on Friday and Saturday morning. With this finishing touches on the route, the athletes can claim the waters for themselves under strict requirements. Swimming is usually not allowed here due to shipping traffic, but to the delight of the athletes, it is currently discontinued because of the low water level, such as tri-mag.de reported.

The water temperature has leveled off at 25.3 degrees Celsius. The fact that many athletes wear neoprene suits for the dress rehearsal is particularly exciting for the dress rehearsal, even if the organizational rules state that the decision on permission to use neoprene suits is made an hour before the start. At the moment, the tendency indicates that professionals probably have to compete without a wetsuit, which can change at short notice, as well as Challenge-roth.com

anticipation and competition spirit

The test swimming times on Friday and Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. are scheduled for the participants, and their preparations are in full swing. The first starting signal for the race will be given on Sunday at 6:30 a.m., while the last AGROUPELARTERTER will be sent to the demanding route of 226 kilometers at 8:15 a.m. An important point that the athletes have to pay attention to is access to the transition zone, which is still empty on Friday morning. Change bags for cycling can only be placed shortly before the start.

SWIMSKINS, which are popular on the Roth Expo, are also particularly popular. If you get along without a wetsuit, you could also have an advantage because less time is lost in the first discipline. A good knack when packing the training and competition accessories seems all the more important, especially since the athletes can also use selfies or video calls as mood heaters if the supporters are not on site.
