Lautwein wins triathlon despite crash, sets course record

Tobias Lautwein has claimed victory in the jedermanndistanz (4.5 km swimming / 20 km mountain bike / 4.5 km running) of the Hünsborn2BeWild triathlon. He did so in a new course record, despite a crash during the mountain bike segment.

It was a tense race against his former teammate Paul Gnich of Team TVE Netphen. Lautwein described it as a cat-and-mouse game with multiple lead changes, with the outcome remaining uncertain for a long time.

Lautwein confirmed via Instagram that he will definitely return next year. The event was organized by RSV Osthelden.
