Challenge North America will host a professional triathlon event at Challenge Miami on the Homestead-Miami Speedway, billed as ‘one of the most picturesque tracks on the NASCAR circuit’.
Scheduled to take place on March 12, 2021, the organising team add that…. ‘The event will take the competition to even higher stakes than the previous race, Challenge Daytona, as top athletes from all around the world will participate.’
Top athletes including #1 in the world, Jan Frodeno, who has not participated in a race since October 2019, will battle for a US$50,000 prize purse. Other world-class athletes include Challenge Daytona Champion Paula Findlay, second in the world Lucy Charles-Barclay and #4 in the world Sarah Crowley… ‘in addition to about 80 additional endurance athletes competing from around the globe.’
‘The bike course will also be somewhat unexpected for those who raced at Daytona back in December. The Miami bike race will take place on the road course, increasing overall complexity demanding a strategy to incorporate more than pure speed.’

Jan Frodeno said “After 17 months it’s finally time to push for the line again. I’ve truly missed the pre-race nerves, race training and actual racing and am glad to finally be able to hear a start gun go off.”
The Challenge Miami race action will be optimized for viewing on TV broadcast, live stream and for spectators, with ‘many optical improvements gleaned from the production of the previous race at Challenge Daytona.’
‘The course will offer once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for spectators to get up close and cheer on their favourite professional athletes while being mindful of COVID-19 safety precautions.’
