You might know triathlon.but do you know XTERRA?
Endurance Films and Mach3 Multisport announce the DVD
release of the world's first completely comprehensive guide
to XTERRA training, XTERRA: Off Road Triathlon - Get Dirty.
Produced in association with TEAM Unlimited, official
organizers of the XTerra triathlon series, the DVD serves to
demystify the sport and open doors to a broader audience.
"We've been producing triathlon and fitness DVD's for over 9
years now, but this is our first dedicated project working with
XTERRA," says founder Eric Feller. "It's an exciting category
in sports and a great time for us to get involved.
XTERRA, or off-road triathlon, is the fastest growing new
concept in multisport with more than 100 events in 16
countries. Bordering on the extreme, this style of racing
takes the conventional framework of a road triathlon and
adds the unpredictability of Mother Nature. Xterra replaces
the security of the open road with the challenges of
undulating dirt, or mud, trails that wind between mountains,
over rocks and fallen trees, through creeks and rivers, in
some of the toughest conditions on the planet. Yet anyone
can do it!
"The biggest thing keeping people from the sport was a fear
and a perception that XTERRA was some kind of 500 pound
gorillasomething that was beyond them," said host Brian
Grasky, XTerra Champion and USA Triathlon All-American.
"We made this DVD for all athletes, whether triathletes or
mountain bikers, beginner or advanced, to understand that
there is nothing cosmic about doing an off-road triathlon.
With the right knowledge and understanding, it can be a fun,
challenging, and rewarding fitness goal that they can reach
for and attain."
