Next week &#8211; on June 15 to be exact &#8211; the entry fee goes up. So, registering in the next few days pays off. Let&#8217;s see why this race is worth considering!<\/p>\n<p>Sun, beach, island vibes, and Spanish tapas: what else do you wish for a Middle Distance race? We summed up a few reasons as to why\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tri-today.com\/2021\/10\/captured-in-images-challenge-peguera-mallorca\/\">Challenge Peguera-Mallorca<\/a>\u00a0is a perfect addition to your race calendar. On Oct. 15 2022 athletes will be toeing the line again at the white-sand beaches around Peguera bay for this beautiful event.<\/p>\n<p>Mallorca \u2013 Spain\u2019s largest Balearic island \u2013\u00a0is known as a sunny destination, as the island is covered in sun for around 300 days every year. That means there is a great chance for you to race a sunny edition of Challenge Peguera-Mallorca. And if you\u2019re out there anyway, you might as well combine racing with a beautiful (family) holiday.<\/p>\n<p>Challenge Peguera-Mallorca is not an easy race, nor does it qualify as an extreme event. However, the bike course will definitely challenge you with some nice climbs.<\/p>\n<p>The day starts with a 1900-meter swim in the bay of Peguera. Athletes will head to Tor\u00e0 Beach Arena before they return and complete the one-lap course. Only 140 meters from the shore, you will find your bike in T1, which is also T2.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Versatile bike course<\/h2>\n<p>The 90K bike course is known for its beautiful views along the course and the countryside roads. Make sure to take it all in when you can, because often you will be working so hard that you have no time left for that. The course has quite some tough climbs and technical descents. Fortunately, it\u2019s not all up and down, because there are also flat sections where you can get down in your aero bars and make speed.<\/p>\n<p>Athletes will complete the bike course in two laps, passing some popular holiday destinations, beaches, and beautiful nature at Serra de la Tramuntana; a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Every lap counts around 500 meters elevation.<\/p>\n<p>The bike course will start in Peguera, lead through Es Capdell\u00e0 \u2013\u00a0an ancient city \u2013, a descent through Son Pillo, past Calvi\u00e0, El Toro, Santa Ponca and along the coast back to Peguera.<\/p>\n<p><em>Text continues after picture:<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13511 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.challenge-family.com\/challenge-family\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2024\/05\/schermafbeelding-2023-06-08-om-10.06.24.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1439\" height=\"791\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Enthusiastic crowd<\/h2>\n<p>After the bike part, an enthusiastic crowd will welcome you back into town.

The hilly, but also flat courses, and the possibility to swim in the sea, make Mallorca popular among triathletes. That means you will have enough to do in the days before and after your race.<\/p>\n<h2>Bring your family along<\/h2>\n<p>Not only for training and racing, Mallorca is great: it\u2019s also one of the most popular holiday destination within Europe, so bringing your family or friends along for a nice trip is a great idea.
