25.4.2011 - We did the tour and inspect the surface of the cycling route. The entire length of the loop quality remained unchanged compared to last year (high quality). On the road leading to loop one of the less good road section has been renovated, so you are basically only two pieces of several hundred meters, where you have to pay more attention when riding a bicycle.

21.2.2011 - We changed the date of "eXtremalna Sobota 2011" to the first Saturday of July:

| Sompong Sombati - Last year, to mark turning 60,
Sompong Sombati did something even he calls crazy: he completed six ultradistance triathlons in a five-month span. In each event the Virginia medical researcher swam
3.8 km, biked 180 km, and ran a full marathon. He does this to relax ! This year he decided to start in our event again. Congratulations on your condition and see you at start line Som ! |

16.7.2009 - We updated Time schedule and added some additional informations in How to reach Szczecin
08.7.2009 - Due to the deteriorating quality of roads on
the last year route we decided to change radically the bike route. For almost
all of the new route is a very good surface quality. The disadvantage of this
route, unfortunately, is that it leads in the majority among the forests of
Wkrzanska Primeval Forest,
so is not as picturesque as the previous one, which proceeded to a large extent,
also among the fields and meadows.
On the route page there is already up-to-date map.

Due to high interest on our event we increase the limit of the number of

across disciplines are the same as an individual category, we will provide more
details of the next weekend.
