All roads leads to Challenge

Recently it has become clear again how much the city of Roth appreciates the world-wide Challenge triathlon series. At the celebration of Roth’s 950th anniversary Mayor Richard Erdmann unveiled a signpost at the car park near the entrance of the Triathlon Park. The special thing about it is that apart from Roth’s twin cities, the sign also shows all Challenge locations – including the exact distances. Obviously the citizens of Roth are so enthusiastic about triathlon that no where is to far for them, not even the 18,283 kilometres to Challenge Wanaka on the other side of the world.
