CHALLENGE PEGUERA MALLORCA "FULLY BOOKED" WITH 1.100 TRIATHLETES

Less than a month to go before Challenge Peguera Mallorca middle distance triathlon takes place, and registrations for the third consecutive year are SOLD OUT. The organisation had put out 1100 places for sale. This confirms the good acceptance of the event and its consolidation as one of the best triathlons for the end of the season in Europe.

Pro field, who will win?

The main race presents an amazing pro field, maybe the best of all the editions.

At the women's pro field seems that the battle for the CHMALLORCA19 throne will be between Radka Kahlefeldt (CZE) the current favourite to win the chfamily ranking 2019, Fenella Langridge (UK) who wants to repeat her great swim and bike performance of the past year race, improving the run performance to be on the first step of the podium. And last but not least, the CHMALLORCA 2017 winner, the Spanish Judith Corachan.

At men's pro field, some of the favourites are these: the Spanish Pablo Dapena wants to repeat his last year result, challenge Mallorca champion 2018. But he is not the only one with the idea to repeat victory, the 2016 ChMallorca champion, Pieter Heemeryck (BEL) is in a good shape to be the first pro winning two ChMallorca. The third invitation to this party is for Ruedi Wild (CH), he will come to Mallorca with the aim of being the first Swiss to win CHMALLORCA.
