XTERRA LA VIÑUELA-COSTA DEL SOL
Entramos en el mes clave en una de las pruebas más complicadas del XTERRA Spain Tour.
Aconsejados por el Bicampeón del Mundo de XTERRA Rubén Ruzafa el cual estuvo realizando el circuito de MTB el pasado viernes 1 de agosto, hemos decidido quitar algunos de los tramos aunque no recortar el recorrido. Esto se debe a que el último participante tardaría unas 7 horas en cruzar la línea de meta y trastocaría un poco la organización de la prueba.
