FULL DISTANCE - Story of the Race

An all-new terrain for the pro series, blending speed and endurance with centuries of English history, as Weston Park became the latest destination to join the World Cup.

The calm before the chaos—rituals and release before the battles begin.

A new leader in the water for the men—Britain’s Rory Strachan set the pace with the fastest swim split of the day at 17:55.

A flurry of pink caps and churned water as the women’s field fights for early position.

Another one for the home crowd—Isla Hedley of Great Britain led out of the water with a swim split of 18:29.

The bike leg delivered some of the day’s best racing—packs formed, alliances shifted, and positions changed constantly across 37.5K of flat-out terrain.

Doing it faster than anyone else, Arthur Forissier clocked the fastest bike split of the day—1:28:40 to complete the loop as he worked his way to the front.

Once again dominant in her favoured discipline, Alizée Paties recorded the fastest bike split among the women—1:38:58—as she closed the gap to early leader Aneta Grabmüller.

A career-best performance from Great Britain’s Will Draper saw him leading the men’s race heading into the final discipline.

But nothing could stop Félix Forissier, who paced his race to perfection to claim back-to-back wins in the space of just seven days—first in Greece, then in the UK.

For Alizée Paties, it’s three in a row—back-to-back-to-back wins to maintain her perfect score and solidify her place at the top of the leaderboard after three stops.

Incredible efforts from the home-country athletes, with Isla Hedley earning her first World Cup podium behind Aneta Grabmüller in second place.

For the men, it was Will Draper who gave the home crowd plenty to scream for as he claimed his first World Cup podium with a second-place finish.

Arthur Forissier took the golden jersey for the first time in 2025, while Alizée Paties made it three in a row to remain the undisputed series leader.

Athletes To Watch

Top contenders, local favorites and the full start list.

Sebastien Carabin

One of the fastest bikers in the sport, Carabin regularly posts the top MTB splits at major races. His experience and endurance make him a danger in the field—especially if conditions turn rough.

Sebastian Neef

DEU

A staple in Europe’s top tier, Neef has become a top-10 regular on the XTERRA circuit, often through raw power to the bike. If he stays close out of the swim, he could make the front of the race an interesting battle.

Kerri Ann Upham

GBR

A regular on the XTERRA UK scene and podium finisher at Weston Park in 2024, Upham thrives on tough trails and home-country support. With a strong bike and consistent form, she’ll be aiming for another top finish.

Emma Ducreux

A rising force from France, Ducreux has a lightning-fast swim that will see her racing up front from early on. She’ll make hard work for the chasing pack as she looks to open her campaign with a bang.

Alizee Paties

FRA

Former World Cup winner and current series leader, Paties is one of the most complete athletes on the circuit. She’s already opened 2024 with a win and remains the woman to beat.

Morgan Rhodes

GBR

Second at Weston Park in 2024, Rhodes is a home-course threat with World Cup experience and serious speed. He brings strong swim-bike balance and is hunting for his first major win.

Sam Teller

USA

Emerging from a breakout year in 2023, Teller landed a top-10 finish at the USA Championship and has been building confidence with every race. Watch for him to surge on the run.

Isla Hedley

GBR

One of the brightest young stars in British off-road triathlon, Hedley impressed with an age-group win at XTERRA Worlds in 2023. She’s now mixing it with the pros with the potential to make a big impact on home soil.

Kieran Mcpherson

NZL

A veteran of the sport with multiple XTERRA wins across Asia-Pacific and the Americas, McPherson knows how to race smart. He thrives in unpredictable conditions and can chase down almost anyone.

WORLD CUP Series Info

The XTERRA World Cup is the world's premier off-road triathlon pro series, where the sport’s top elites go head-to-head in a condensed circuit of Full Distance and Short Track races. A points-based battle where every turn, climb, and descent matters, each race is a fight for a share of the series prize purse and the pursuit of becoming the next XTERRA World Cup Champion.

The 2025 World Cup will feature eight stops and 11 races across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and North America. With no joker rule in play, every race counts toward the overall standings. Full Distance races award series points to the top 30 finishers, with the winner claiming 100 points. Short Track races are invitation-only, featuring the top 30 qualifiers, with the winner earning the maximum 75 points.

‍

The Short Track showdown in Trentino, Italy, will serve as the series finale, where the next XTERRA World Cup Champions will be crowned ahead of the 2025 XTERRA World Championship.
