Renault L&Z Q-Tri Bornhöved 2026

The Renault L&Z Q-Tri Bornhöved is a local triathlon in Bornhöved, Schleswig-Holstein, typically held in August and organized by TSV Quellenhaupt Bornhöved von 1910. It focuses on short, accessible race formats instead of long-distance events. The sprint race includes a 500 m swim, 22 km bike ride, and 5 km run. Shorter youth and supersprint options offer reduced distances for younger or less experienced athletes. The race follows the standard triathlon sequence: swim, road cycling, then a road run. Its motto, “Jedem seine Distanz” — “to each their own distance” — reflects the diverse participation, with individual races, relays, children’s and junior categories, club athletes, families, and first-timers all competing on the same day. The location near Bornhöved places the race amidst the lakes and ponds of rural Schleswig-Holstein. Now around its thirtieth edition, the event feels like a well-established local sports day.
