Steinfurter Volksbank Triathlon

The Steinfurter Volksbank Triathlon begins and ends at Freibad Burgsteinfurt in Steinfurt, North Rhine-Westphalia. The swim takes place in a 50-meter competition pool, not open water. Tri Team Steinfurt organizes the event following German Triathlon Union regulations. The race distances include a sprint triathlon and middle-distance options: 0.5/20/5 km, 1/40/10 km, and 2/80/20 km for swim, bike, and run, respectively. A short-distance relay for teams is also offered. The event is suitable for adults seeking a structured, local triathlon experience, as well as athletes progressing to longer distances. The pool water temperature typically ranges from 23-25 C. The cycling portion is conducted on roads closed to traffic, and the running course is a loop within Bagnopark. The fields are expected to be moderate, with approximately 120 to 132 participants in each individual race category and a small relay field. This positions the event as a club-organized regional competition rather than a large-scale city triathlon.
