8. Salzlandsparkassen - Triathlon 2026

The Salzlandsparkassen-Triathlon takes place in Hecklingen, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, and is organized by Gaensefurther Sportbewegung. Athletes can choose between two individual race distances: a 1.5 km swim, 43 km bike, and 9.5 km run, or a 500 m swim, 19 km bike, and 4.5 km run. The short-distance individual race is part of the Landesliga series and anticipates around 80 participants. The sprint individual race expects about 100 participants. Additionally, a sprint relay follows the same 500 m swim, 19 km bike, and 4.5 km run course, with approximately 10 relay teams anticipated. Now in its eighth year, the event functions more like a local club race, featuring league points and age-group competition, rather than a major destination event.
