XTerra Race in Kihei

The XTERRA triathalon race, including 600 international participants, will be held in Kihei on October 25th. Athletes from over twenty countries and forty states will gather at the Maui Prince Hotel where the race will begin and end. Their physical toughness will be challenged over terrain including sun, water, sand, kiawe, cactus and lava.

The participants have competed all season long for the right to run this 120-mile race. This is the XTERRA Global Tour's culminating event and it's no wonder Maui was chosen for it. Condé Nast Traveler magazine readers voted Maui "Best Island in the World" fourteen times.

When the race is over, the after party will include a beautiful evening of dancing and elaborate costumes. Those who join in on the festivities will have a chance to get to know one another and experience the unity that comes with the completion of such an impressive challenge.

Pro prize money is $105,000. An XTERRA World Champion jersey will be awarded to age group winners. The race will be filmed for a one-hour nationwide TV special. You can also see live coverage online at XTERRA.TV. Last years race can be viewed at www.XTERRA.tv.
