USAG BAVARIA – HOHENFELS, Germany – Dozens of athletes took to the Joint Multinational Readiness Center to row, bicycle, and run as part of the Hohenfels Military Community’s inaugural Driathlon Aug. 17, 2024 at Hohenfels, Germany.
There were 19 individual participants and seven three-person teams coming from Hohenfels, Grafenwoehr and as far away as Stuttgart to compete.
Participants rowed for 750 meters on stationary rowing machines, and from there they took to the gravel roadways of the training area on bicycle. The final stage of the race was a five-kilometer run, which started with an uphill climb and ended with an uphill climb.
Despite the name “driathlon,” the weather was not dry, and competitors rowed, biked and ran in wet weather.
Organizations provided food and water at the event start site, and volunteers staffed water tables along the bicycle and running portions of the race.
