XTERRA North American Championship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was a big weekend at Oak Mountain State Park in Alabama this weekend for the XTERRA North American Championship. Reed Legg (USA) and Isla Hedley took Friday\u2019s Short Track titles, while Maxim Chan\u00e9 (FRA) and Marta Menditto (ITA) won the long-course races on Sunday. On Saturday the USA Triathlon Youth and Junior Cross National Championship took place. Americans Lucas Wright and Abigail Wales took the Junior titles, Dylan Thompson, and Elletta Aardema-Gagnon also earned Youth A wins, while Joren Aardema-Gagnon and Canada\u2019s Dahlia Fillion took the Youth B honors. As the North American Championship, it was Legg who would earn the men\u2019s title after finishing second in Sunday\u2019s race (the only American in the top-10), while Amanda Felder followed up her win at XTERRA Puerto Rico earlier this year after finishing sixth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’re billing it as “triathlon’s richest day of the year,” and with US$800,000 on the line it’s hard not to concur. Supertri<\/a> has announced its Pro Series Final will take place on Sept. 6 in Jersey, Channel Islands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The confirmed start list reads like a who\u2019s who of short-course triathlon,” today’s press release states. “Olympic gold medallists Alex Yee (GBR) and Cassandre Beaugrand (FRA) headline a field that also includes Matt Hauser (AUS), Georgia Taylor-Brown (GBR), Tim Hellwig (GER), Csongor Lehmann (HUN), Jeanne Lehair (LUX) and Jolien Vermeylen (BEL), with more big names to be announced. Together they represent some of the fastest and most decorated athletes in the sport, and all will be racing for their share of 2026\u2019s biggest single-day triathlon prize purse.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will be the one and only race in the Supertri series this year utilizing the Supertri format of three back-to-back rounds of swim, bike and run. With an emphasis on age-group racing this year – you can read about the new approach in the story we posted earlier this year – there will be three pro qualifying races in the Supertri series. The top three male and female finishers from the qualifiers, which take place in Austin, Blenheim Palace and Toronto, will qualify for the Jersey race and compete against the big names Supertri is bringing in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
