14 January 2024. /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Following voting by athletes from around the world, the top Challenge Family races for 2024 have been revealed with today’s announcement of the Challenge Family Awards winners.

The Challenge Family Awards were developed in 2019 to provide recognition to the global team of race directors and teams behind the scenes for all they do for the sport of triathlon through the delivery of their races. The shortlist is decided based on the post-race surveys completed by athletes after each race with the final placings decided by athlete voting.

“We’re incredibly proud of our race teams around the world and the communities that support them,” said Jort Vlam, Challenge Family CEO. “While not every race can win at the Awards, we recognise the commitment and dedication in each of them. Every race lives by our mantra, ‘All About The Athlete’ and we all look forward to welcoming athletes to another successful Challenge Family season in 2025.”
