“Around the world, people are committing to fight cancer in their communities. TriStar is an example of that commitment. The participants and supporters of the triathlon play a critical role in LIVESTRONG’s ongoing efforts to find innovative ways to raise awareness, fund research and end the stigma about cancer that many survivors face, and we applaud their efforts.”
Doug Ulman, President and CEO of the Lance Armstrong Foundation

“When I heard about this endurance event, I wanted to do it right away. This will attract duathletes, cyclists and triathletes from across Europe.”

“We athletes have to believe in this new challenge that TriStar200 Andalucía represents, and in this opportunity to grow as a triathlete. Above all that, it is a way to enjoy our sport even more!"
Martina Dogana

"People are looking for challenges that are tough, in places that are unique and different and fun. The new brand Star Events offers another option for people. I think this is perfect."
Chris McCormack

"TriStar has created a new and exciting race format for the sport of triathlon with a focus on participation.  I truly believe the new format is a true balance between the three sports. The sport of triathlon is growing so fast yet new ideas are slow to keep up. TriStar has caught up to the demands and will become the leader in triathlon events. Furthermore, TriStar has assembled a crew that has a winning record in providing safe events."
Peter Reid

"To start this race in Spain together is exciting. The wind and the sun will demand a great deal of all participants, and thus the competition is the best preparation for the Ironman World Championship in October in Hawaii. Due to the shorter distances TriStar200 Andalucía fits perfectly into my preparation."
Nicole Leder

"The concept breaks traditional rules and brings new momentum to the sport of triathlon, which I like a lot. Ironman races never get boring either, however the limitations of entry spots narrow the possibilities of participation. TriStar offers new opportunities to become part of first class events."
Norbert Langbrandtner

The production value of the talent of TriStar's team will ensure an experience for participants that will make them want to come back and come back with their friends.

"I have had a solid relationship with the organising committee in the past racing their events. I think they have an extensive understanding of what people are looking for in events and more so understand the fine balance of organising a safe yet challenging race. They do an amazing job."
Chris McCormack

"It was fantastic; it's more fun than an Ironman! It has been a real challenge to feel the loneliness in Doñana, and running on the beach on sand has been a new experience. I will definitely participate in more events of the TriStar series!”.
Paul Amey

"I really want to get a taste of this new format. For long-distance fans, it is an alternative to be tested, and the race can put pepper in an athlete’s season. I also belive the more there will be initiatives of this kind, the more people will speak about triathlon, which will help in the development and the mediatization of our sport."
