Zwift Norseman 2020 Series Announced
Zwift just announced the 2020 Norseman series – a 6-week ride and run training series culminating with the weeklong Norseman Festival of Climbing. As COVID-19 led to the cancellation of the real-life Norseman race, this is THE Norseman experience for 2020.

ABOUT NORSEMAN
Norseman is a tribute to triathlon, where you bring your best friends and family to join the party. You bring them as your support. As your safe haven. You join together as a team, where your best friend is the one handing you the bottle that helps you up another climb.And when you get to the finish line, whether it’s on Gaustatoppen or Gaustablikk, your hard work and effort will get rewarded—with our approval of your success and a T-shirt.But most important of all, you can claim the title of a true triathlete: You are a Norseman.
