Leveleki Vasember Triatlon Kupa 2018

Csónakázó tó anchors this old Hungarian triathlon: water first, then the bike-and-run stages that have drawn triathlon enthusiasts back for generations. Now in its 42nd year, Vasi Vasember is more than a race; "generations grew up to the sound of the starting pistol," and that history is palpable without being rigid or formal. The event is suited for both first-time triathletes and seasoned competitors who prefer a genuine community race over a polished spectacle. Expect a family atmosphere, athletes supporting each other, a finish line that feels earned, and the local comforts that are significant after racing: complimentary beer at the finish and krumplis teszta, the potato pasta that is as integral to the tradition as the start itself.
