We love to race and coupled with our training camp programme based in the same location we know that our athletes will enjoy the prospect of competing at this event.
“The past year has been a difficult one for race organisers and we have had to postpone many of our camps, but we can now see the light at the end of the tunnel and what better way to celebrate than with a great race and training camp to look forward to!”
David Thompson of Kumulus commented, “Challenge Tri Camp are renowned for their work in many aspects of triathlon, from camps to coaching, and their unrivalled knowledge of Mallorca and the training and racing here, made it an easy decision for us to form a partnership with them.
