KMD Challenge Copenhagen is the ultimate urban triathlon experience. Right in the middle of the trendy city of Copenhagen, more than 125,000 spectators lined the ECCO Biom run course in the first edition. Top-level service, flat and fast race course combined with Danish hospitability and a trendy city promises to give athletes an experience of a life time. The swim will take part in an artificial laguna located four kilometers from central Copenhagen.

 

The Principia bike course takes the athletes from Amager through the inner streets of Copenhagen to the beautiful countryside of Sealand. The course is a two looped route and consist of a mix of open main roads and small city roads.

 

The run is on the waterfront in Copenhagen. The flat three looped course of 14 kilometers will take the athletes pass some of Copenhagen’s historic and famous attractions, such as the Little Mermaid, Amalienborg Castle and the old harbor of Nyhavn.

 

 

KMD Challenge Copenhagen is part of the Challenge Family series that features 13 races across three continents. The Challenge Family is the original family in triathlon and its rapid emergence as one of the leading triathlon organisations wouldn't have been possible without the support of the athletes who come to Challenge races for the unique atmosphere, exceptional races and the true sense of being part of a larger family that puts the athlete first.
