"A very special honour"

Especially in a year with a European Championship in our own country, this is a very special honour for all those who make the triathlon in Roth possible. Thank you to all those responsible."
For BR Head of Sport, Christoph Netzel, Challenge is a highlight of the sporting year every year, "The race is a flagship event for Bavaria - a real spectacle and a spectator drawcard with over 250,000 fans on site. For our team, it is both a challenge and a matter of the heart to broadcast the TV marathon live on BR Television and streamed on BR24Sport for around 9 hours. We are delighted that this year we will also be able to present the exciting final live on national TV: The biggest one-day sporting event in Bavaria is getting a big media stage."
