The 2014 XTERRA European Tour features an unprecedented 13 championship races in a span of 15 weeks this summer, including new stops in Portugal, Ireland, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway.

“I couldn’t be happier to see the growth and pride of XTERRA in Europe,” said XTERRA World Tour managing director Dave Nicholas.  “We’ve been fortunate to connect with a wealth of great organizers that produce high-quality events in magnificent locations.”

For the second straight year the Series will start in Spain (May 25), a country home to  more XTERRA World Championship men’s pro titles than any other with six combined between Eneko Llanos (3), Ruben Ruzafa (2), and Javier Gomez (1).  The following weekend the Tour visits a new venue and new local organizer for XTERRA Portugal in Golega.

Starting on June 21 the Tour makes stops in Greece, Switzerland and Norway, France, Sweden, Ireland, and Italy on successive weekends through the end of July. The final four in August feature Czech, Germany, England under new organizers, and concludes in Denmark.

Of note, the XTERRA Germany Championship in Zittau on August 16 will double as the ITU Cross Triathlon World Championships.  With XTERRA Czech a week before and XTERRA England a week after, there’s a neat opportunity for Americans (and athletes from around the world) to race for their nation and have two or three chances to qualify for XTERRA Worlds at the same time.
