Do you want to participate in a team triathlon? It’s that time of year again to start thinking about Rothsee 2018! It will take place on Sunday, June 17, 2018.

In 2013, the FIS had one relay team and three teams in the three following years.

This year, we hope to encourage even more members of the FIS community to take part in this amazing event!

The distances for the race are:

1.5 km swim
42 km bike
10 km run
For everyone who is interested or if anyone has questions, feel free to contact me at or Roman Binner at
