Triathlon Europe (ETU) is pleased to announce that Sprint Triathlon European Cup and Triathlon Junior European Cup in Olsztyn Poland will be held on a new date – August 21st.
We know that all of the Triathlon community members have been working so hard to come back for races this year. We also know how much athletes missed racing.
Triathlon European Cup in Olsztyn was planned at 30th of May. We are glad that after a time of uncertainty and many discussions ETU, LOC and Polish National Federation have decided that the contest will go ahead.

Marcin Florek the LOC Representative stated:
“Polish National Triathlon Federation, LOC and the government of the city of Olsztyn are pleased to host the Triathlon European Cup 2020 Sprint Distance. We are convinced that these 4 races for Junior and Elite athletes, will be at the highest level. A record number of over 220 athletes took part in last year’s European Cup in Olsztyn and we hope that this this year’s edition will gather many players again.”

The racing weekend will also host triathlon competition for Age Groupers – Elemental Triathlon Series. Swimming will take place in Lake Ukiel, the largest of several lakes in Olsztyn. The average water temperature at August is 20 C.
