More than 800 athletes in the Olympic and sprint modalities will meet this September 24 in the Arenal Beach. In the sprint 750 waits for meters to swim, 20 km in bike and 5 km running, while in the Olympic, the distance is of 1500 meters to swim, 40 km in bicycle and 10 km running. In addition to the participants, the test will count with about 150 volunteers who will work in the organization of the event and a significant number of personnel between Local Police, Red Cross, Civil Guard and Civil Protection. Faced with this large amount, we must add the group of family and sports fans who are expected to congregate at the event.
For the councilor of Sports, Vicent Colomer, the Trixabia "Is a test already consolidated in the Region of Valencia and in the rest of Spain, as evidenced by the growing interest it generates." Also, the president of the Club d'Atletisme Llebeig, Jaime Escortell, stressed that this year's edition "It will be very special with the memory of Edu, it will be a test with a lot of feeling, and as we have already announced, from now on the trixàbia will be a memorial of Edu Monfort".
Valeriano Gómez, president of the Valencian Federation of Athletics, who was present at the presentation, remarked that he is a regular participant in these events but he can not do it because he is injured, "I know the circuit and I love it for being attractive and beautiful, without the support of the municipalities it would be impossible to do this test and the Llebeig club for having the courage to organize it."
El Mayor of Xàbia, José Chulvi, said that this triathlon will have a great economic and social impact for Xàbia, "This test would not be possible if CA Llebeig were not there, they have the municipal and federative support". Chulvi mentioned the great collaboration of volunteers and law enforcement personnel who will be distributed throughout the circuit to ensure the safety of the test, "If there is something that speaks well of a club, it is the people who form it and keep in mind people who are no longer like Edu Monfort, passionate about
Athletics and Triathlon, the athletic club will make it very present in everything that is organized. "
