Charles Adamo, Executive Chairman of PTO commented, ““We are very grateful to find opportunities to support local and regional races, our national federations and our triathlon community. It is a tribute the commitment of FETRI that they are able to overcome and host an event in these difficult times and it is an honour to be  part of an event that not only puts on display the resilience of those committed to supporting our sport, but also gives our PTO Professionals in Europe the chance to race and earn points towards Collins Cup qualification”

Jorge Garcia, FETRI Events Director said, “It is a privilege to be able to hold our event in this climate. Our team has worked hard to provide athletes with the opportunity to race safely. It will be great to see professionals and amateur athletes unite for a fantastic race. We are excited to welcome PTO Professionals to the race and thank the PTO for their support”.
