Energy stations:
There are two aid stations along the course:
Eagle's Nest – Located at T2 and the finish line, offering refreshments and nutrition.
Joker Fjellbutikken – Water only, passed twice on the out-and-back section.
Between aid stations, you must be self-sufficient. We recommend carrying a collapsible cup or hydration bladder, which you can refill from suitable streams and running water along the course. This is an old-school, self-supported mountain race. Come prepared!
Cut-Offs:
To make thorXtri safe for athletes and volunteers we have 2 cut-offs:
1) You need to have completed the swim course before 06:15 CET
2) You need to have completed the bike course before 13:00 CET
If you arrive after this time, you will be taken out of the race at that point. This is for safety on the narrow roads (after the swim) and to ensure we get all athletes off the mountain before it gets dark (after bike).
Bagdrop from T1 to T2:
Before racking your bike at T1, you must hand in a backpack containing your running shoes and all mandatory run gear. The backpack must be large enough to hold everything and clearly marked with your race bib number. We will transport your backpack to T2 (Eagle's Nest), where it will be waiting when you finish the bike leg. At T2, you will be provided with a plastic bag for your bike gear and other belongings. We will transport this bag back to Lysefjorden Turisthytte for collection after the race.
Transport down the hill from finishline to Lysebotn
Athletes are responsible for getting back to Lysebotn after the race. This normally means cycling down from Eagle's Nest. You may arrange a lift with your own spectator or another athlete's support crew. However, with up to 50 athletes, we cannot provide or guarantee transport down the mountain. Please plan your return journey in advance.
