Course description
A half-distance race in the capital of Lower Austria with a distinctive two-lake swim: from the Viehofner lake across a short land transition into the Ratzersdorfer lake. The hilly bike runs through vineyards and along the river, while the flat two-loop run leads through the baroque old town.
Coach tip
The transition between the two lakes with a short land run is unusual — practise the exit and re-entry so you don't lose time. Ride the hilly bike evenly and save energy for the climbs. Use the flat two-loop run through the old town to hold a steady, controlled pace to the finish.
