MyXTRI Shadow World Tour
INFORMATION

We understand it’s not always possible to attend our real races, and sometimes you are deeply jealous of your friends and club members who do. Well now you can take on the Shadow World Tour. A series of races done on your own terms, outside or virtually, in the most xtreme and creative way possible.

By doing the Shadow World Tour races you could win a complimentary slot for that particular physical XTRI race 2027, plus earn up to 25 X-points. Plan and create your own Xtreme course, complete the required distances and aim for the optional elevation goal to become an Xtreme world tour triathlete.

Can’t do the full distances? No problem. There are  Shadow .8, Shadow .6 and Lite versions that you can take on, you decide!

*Please note you must do the distance you select. Over reporting brings no extra benefit, under reporting is not treated as a shorter distance. For example, if you enter the Shadow .8, you must complete the .8 distance.
**Please also note that the race dates match those of the real world events. For example Janosik is September 5th. However, if you can't take part on that date, you can take part the next day (September 6th).

Up For Grabs in each race

  • 25 for the Shadow Xtreme
