XTERRA Victoria, Durrance Lake
This weekend’s XTERRA Victoria triathlon was an amazing race. This year’s race was part of the Pan American Tour and was a qualifying race for athletes for the 2016 XTERRA World Championship in Maui and also for the 2017 ITU Triathlon Cross Worlds in Penticton.
We were proud to sponsor this offroad triathlon and we were happy to be there providing treatments to athletes before and after the race.
Karsten Madsen crossed the finish line first, with a time of 2:10:51. Check out the full race results.
