July 27, 2022

(Daytona Beach, FL) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – CLASH Endurance is excited to announce that FS1 and FS2 are set to air the inaugural CLASH Endurance Watkins Glen Triathlon that took place July 8-9, 2022. Professional and age group athletes that varied in age and ability took on the Watkins Glen International Speedway, but also experienced a myriad of scenery and region-specific activities surrounding “The Glen.” In addition, registered athletes received free entry to The Finger Lakes Wine Festival, noted as the “Best Wine Festival” by USA Today. This created a celebratory atmosphere filled with finish line victories, spectators cheering on athletes and those truly taking in all that CLASH Endurance has to offer. The event will also air on FOX Sports Racing in varying Canadian markets.

This broadcast differs from other CLASH Endurance shows as it centers around the faces and stories behind the start line. Gain a personal ‘All-Access’ pass and witness what it takes for professional and age group athletes alike to race on this historic, challenging and memorable course. Also check out how athletes enjoyed their time around Watkins Glen with friends and family by camping, kayaking, visits to ice creameries, wineries and behind-the-scenes tours of the speedway. Cheer on USA’s Andrew Starykowicz who led out of the swim and held off fellow competitors during the bike and run, dominating the men’s field with a winning time of 3:29:12. On the women’s side, American Sophie Watts claimed the title demonstrating excellent form on a difficult course, crossing the line at 3:52:09.
