The second short track race of the XTERRA World Cup will no doubt be one of the most exhilarating races of 2023. Going down at the European Championship at a time when the XTERRA World Rankings are being dominated by European athletes, the full-distance and short track races will feel a lot like a dress rehearsal for the World Champs, with a bit of national pride thrown in for extra spice. With the short-track race following the day after the full-distance race, expect to see all the biggest names on the line as they navigate the condensed off-road tri course in an all-out sprint for prize money, pride, and those all-important World Cup points.
