After the more than successful premieres of the two "Challenge Barcelona-Maresme" triathlon competitions, the politicians of the city of Calella and the other communities involved in the event were very satisfied. "The two Challenge events in May and October are a real gain for our coastal region", says Josep Jo, Head of the Maresme District Authority.

The organizing team has now announced the dates for the 2010 Challenge events. On May 16, 2010 the half-distance race will take place for the second time, and on October 3, 2010 there will be the long-distance race.

Since there has been a change in the company that organizes the event, the homepage will move to www.challenge-barcelona.es. The application forms for athletes will now be available at this website.
