Following the release of the 2016 ITU World Triathlon Series calendar last month, ITU is pleased to confirm dates and distances for each race.
The 2016 WTS schedule is now complete with the addition of Cape Town to the 2016 schedule, and also contains confirmed dates for both Gold Coast and Edmonton.
