The German Triathlon Union e. V. ( DTU ) is the only competent and recognized sports federation in Germany for Triathlon , Duathlon , Aquathlon and related multi-sports (para-triathlon, winter triathlon, cross triathlon and cross duathlon) and as such a member of the Olympic German Sports Federation , the European Triathlon Union and the International Triathlon Union .

History of the DTU

In the spring of 1982, the ZDF sports report broadcast a ten-minute report on the Ironman Hawaii of the same year, which was compiled from the material provided by the US broadcaster ABC . That was the trigger for the triathlon competitions organized for the first time in Germany that same year. They took place in Hückeswagen , Gerolstein , Essen , Kehl (all in 1982) and in 1983 in Immenstadt and as A3K in Rostock . Günter Kissler from Koblenz organized a European championship over the long distance in September 1984 at Fühlinger See in Cologne. He later founded the popular sports-oriented German Triathlon Association (DTrB). At the same time, Manuel Debus , the first German finisher at the Ironman Hawaii in 1982, founded the more competitive German Triathlon Association (DTV).

On February 23, 1985, DTV and DTrB merged in Worms to form the German Triathlon Union. The founding president was the Heigenbrück dentist Joachim Fischer. In 1987, the then twenty-seven-year-old Martin Engelhardt , former Bundesliga swimmer and assistant doctor at Hanau City Hospital, who two years earlier had founded the Triathlon Association of German Doctors and Pharmacists (TVdÄA) in Hanau, which dominated the German triathlon scene at the time, succeeded him as President. On December 5, 1987, the DTU was accepted into the German Sports Association. On October 28, 1990, the Triathlon Association of the GDR, which was only founded in May, integrated itself into the DTU with its five regional associations. With 16 regional associations and 17,445 members, the DTU has become the nation with the largest number of members within the European Triathlon Union (ETU).

In 2001 Klaus Müller-Ott , a general practitioner from Bornhöved , succeeded Martin Engelhardt as DTU President. He was followed in February 2008 by the sixty-three-year-old Rainer Düro, who previously headed the Rhineland-Palatinate state association for thirteen years. Eight months later, the thirty-nine-year-old lawyer Claudia Wisser prevailed among three candidates as the successor to the health-stricken office. On November 6, 2010 in Worms, the DTU celebrated its 25th anniversary, where Wisser declared that he would not stand again and the state associations elected the 66-year-old former member of the Bundestag Reinhold Hemker as the new President of the DTU. Just 103 days later, Hemker also announced his resignation for health reasons. The two vice-presidents Reinhold Häußlein and Bernd Rollar acted as the interim executive board until Martin Engelhardt was re-elected president in November.
In November 2018 Engelhardt was confirmed as president for another four years at the DTU Association Day.

swim

A one-piece suit with sleeves is common for swimming. Two-piece suits and neoprene hoods may also be used. The maximum total material thickness of a cold protection suit must not exceed 5 mm and it must not consist of more than three individual parts.

Whether the wearing of the neoprene parts is allowed depends on the swimming distance and the water temperature on the day of the competition. According to the DTU regulations, there is no swimming if the water temperature is below 14 ° C. Youth A and Youth B (14–17 years) are not allowed to swim below 17 ° C and a limit of 19 ° C applies to schoolchildren.

The Bundesliga and elite starters are no longer allowed to wear a Neo up to a swimming distance of 1.5 km from 19.9 ° C water temperature and the 21.9 degree mark applies to age group athletes (amateurs) on the same distance.

Wearing a wetsuit up to a water temperature of 22.9 ° C is allowed up to a swimming distance of 3 km (middle distance). In the long distance (swimming distances from 3 km) there is a water temperature of 24 ° C or more. In Ironman races, there is always an upper limit of 24.5 ° C water temperature according to WTC regulations.

To go biking

Slipstream riding behind or to the side of another participant is permitted on the sprint and short distance and prohibited on the medium and long distance. The slipstream zone is 12 m long - measured from the front edge of the front wheel of the person in front to the front edge of the front wheel of the following participant.

Middle distance

Laura Philipp - German triathlon champion in the middle distance (2016)

Andreas Böcherer - German triathlon champion in the middle distance (2007 and 2016)

The planned standard distances for the middle distance are 1.9 to 3 km swimming, 80 to 90 km cycling and 20 to 21 km running according to the DTU sports regulations.

Due to local circumstances and local conditions, the sports regulations allow a deviation of up to ± 10% in the sub-disciplines compared to these standard distances.

The first event was in July 1994 at the Allgäu Triathlon in Immenstadt . At the Schluchsee in the Black Forest, in 1985 there was 2.5 km of swimming, 100 km of cycling (four round trips over 25 km) and 25 km of running.

1994-1999

From 1994 to 1999 the DTU did not announce any German championships over the middle distance, in order to allow the Olympic distance more attention with regard to the Olympic Games 2000 in Sydney, where triathlon was part of the competition program for the first time.

2000

Until 1993, a qualification was required for a start at the German championship middle distance, since 2000 this has only been an additional rating for all starters who are in possession of a valid DTU start pass.

2016

The championship, which was held for the first time as part of the Challenge Heilbronn in June 2016, had to be held as a duathlon due to the weather - but the DTU decided to use the result as DM.

2019

On May 19, 2019, the German championships were held again after 2016 as part of the Challenge Heilbronn and Sebastian Kienle won the title of German champion for the third time.
