TM XTERRA RETURNS TO UTAH, THE STATE OF SPORT In 1996 mountain biking and triathlon met in a duel of the fittest on the island of Maui. The race consisted of an open- ocean swim, a mountain bike race, and a trail run. It represented a bold new racing format that attracted outdoor enthusiasts, adventure seekers, mountain bikers and triathletes. The mountain bikers brought their laid-back style and bold self-assurance. The triathletes brought their hard-core training and avid dedication. They soon discovered a common spirit and attitude that pulled them together.The relationship would become an internationally- recognized brand called XTERRA. A typical XTERRA Tri is comprised of the following: 1.5 kilometer (0.93-mile) swim in an ocean, lake, or river 30 kilometer (18.6-mile) mountain bike on off-road trails 10 kilometer (6.2-mile) trail run on a variety of surfaces 2016 marks the 21st year of XTERRA racing, and it’s 13th year in Utah. The inaugural XTERRA Pan America Championship is the culmination of a series of off-road triathlons spanning South and Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean, Canada, and the U.S. It’s also the last race in the America Tour for both our nationwide off-road triathlon and trail running series.
