Sports at Memmert

Two weeks before that Andreas Dreitz had to concede defeat at the Memmert Rothsee Triathlon over the Olympic distance to the winner Johnny Zipf from Team Memmert and the Nuremberger Tobias Heining. But over the long distance of the Challenge Roth the Upper Franconian was unbeatable in 2019. With 07:59:02 hours he remained the only competitor under 8 hours, enthusiastically...

On 22 and 23 June 2019, in pleasant temperatures tens of thousands of spectators were again gathered at the competition grounds in the beautifully surroundings of lake Roth. On Saturday the competitions for schoolchildren, young people, amateur triathletes and the Bundesliga took place. With more than 1600 athletes, the short distance competition on Sunday was traditionally the...

Triathlons are as much a part of the region as they are of Memmert. That’s why both the Rothsee Triathlon and Challenge Roth are a firm component of the Memmert family’s event calendar. This year, we even had the pleasure of celebrating three anniversaries: 35 years of Challenge Roth, 30 years’ Rothsee Triathlon and 5 years’ Memmert Rothsee Triathlon. The Memmertians attended...

Undoubtedly, Challenge Roth is the highlight of the triathlon season. The largest long-distance triathlon is immensely popular not only among professionals, but also among hobby triathletes and viewers.

The world champions of the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge Series, with races held in 13 countries,...

The longest day of the year ─ at least from the triathletes point of view ─ is the day of the Roth Challenge each year. When you look at the tough numbers you know why that is: 3.8 km swimming, 180 km cycling and 42.195 km running. That is not the only reason why more than 5000 participants from 70 different nations make the placid, small town of Roth their triathlon Mecca...

The third Memmert Rothsee Triathlon festival has made history yet again and, in our opinion, was a remarkable event - just like in past years. Traditionally, on Saturday, the day began with the classes for children and adolescents, followed by classes for the athletes of the German national league, who were fast as lightning - making the name 'sprint distance' fully justified....

At the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge in Frankfurt, the largest company run in the world with more than 70,000 participants, the team of Memmert GmbH + Co.
