Super-Cross-Sprint Triathlon

The Super-Cross-Sprint Triathlon is a short, fast urban triathlon in Merzig, Saarland, Germany, typically held in late spring. It features XS distances: a 250 m swim, a 7.5 km bike ride, and a 2.5 km run, designed for speed over endurance. The course remains within the town, taking athletes through Merzig's streets rather than a long countryside route. Tri-Sport Saar-Hochwald organizes the event, with Thomas Kiefer as the contact. The federation listing anticipates around 75 participants, indicating a small local race for regular entrants and age-group athletes, not a large triathlon festival.
