Prevent drafting

In Challenge Copenhagen it is our main goal to have a fair race for all athletes. Therefore we will make an essential effort to prevent drafting and all other forms of cheating.

The current rules of 4, 6 or 8 minute penalties for drafting might not be sufficient for the major events modern Iron-distance races has become. With more than 2000 athletes on the race course at the big events, the space for each athlete becomes limited.

We believe it is time to make new initiatives to prevent drafting that are in line with the current challenges long-distance triathlon face.

In cooperation with Danish pro athletes we will discuss the possibilities for new rules and initiatives to secure fair and safe races.
