It only takes about twenty seconds – literally. That’s how long it took for entries to Challenge Roth 2026 to completely sell out this morning. In a scene that’s become almost tradition, the registration window opened and then shut just as quickly, with the entry cap reached in mere moments. It’s a reflection of just how in-demand this iconic race has become.
As a result, thousands of lucky athletes are now celebrating the fact that they secured a coveted entry slot. But for many more, the lightning-fast sellout was a disappointment – another year of missing out on what’s most likely considered the most popular Long Distance triathlon in the world.
Fortunately, Challenge Roth isn’t done with registration yet. Over the coming months, organizers will release a limited number of additional entries through various channels. Athletes still hoping for a chance on the start line would be wise to closely monitor the race’s official website and social media accounts.
