Czech Aquathlon Cup and MČR. In České Budějovice, not only important points were at stake, but also Czech titles. “It can be seen in the concentration and commitment of the competitors,” said Iveta Šimůnková on behalf of the organizers.
One mystery has already been solved in the previous four races. According to the information of the communications manager of the Czech Triathlon Association, Michal Včeliš, only Tereza Svobodová could be overtaken in the overall standings, as she secured the first place in the absolute standings. But of course the championship was also at stake. The organizer was the traditional club TriSK České Budějovice. “We are trying to make everything go 100 percent, we are organizing the race for the twelfth time, the championship of the Czech Republic is the first time,” said Iveta Šimůnková on behalf of the organizers.
In the EGE Aquatlon race in České Budějovice, there were several names that strove for medals: Kateřina Mičková, Michaela Mitisková or Nikola Chovanečková.

“Among men, the situation is more complicated, every point is at stake there.” The organizers have carefully prepared the cross-country race in the Stromovka park. “Simon Koblížek entered the last race from the best position, having one victory and one second place.
