[Video] Xterra Short Track Races 2021 – Edited Highlights

Watch the edited highlights below of all 4 Xterra Short Track Races 2021, held this season in Italy, Czech Republic, Germany and France, with all the thrills and spills this off-road multi-sport triathlon offers.

The biggest advantage of the short course format is that athletes race multiple laps on very tight courses which makes it perfect for film coverage.

XTERRA Short Track is a race concept that debuted in Czech Republic in 2019.  An elite-only event where athletes have to qualify during the full distance event or in a preliminary short track race to claim the best starting position in the final grid.   

The course is made up of a 2 lap 400 metre swim with an Australian exit, a very technical 4 lap 6km bike circuit littered with jumps, rock gardens, root infested single track and a couple of flat out pedalling sections. The 1.8km run is then contested over 2 laps.
