After racing Challenge Family races multiple times already, Gustav Iden is returning in 2024. The Norwegian world-class athlete has been announced to race Challenge Samarkand September this year.
The race in Uzbekistan took place for the first time last year and already attracted an impressive field of participants then – and was won by Frederic Funk and Ellie Salthouse – but this year is going to be no different.
Gustav Iden for sure is one of the biggest names, as he was announced earlier this week as a participant for Challenge Samarkand. Also Rico Bogen, Thomas Bishop, Thor Bendix Madsen, Gaetan Fetaud and Ruben Zepuntke will race, among others. Among the women, Laura Madsen and Lottie Lucas are some of the biggest favorites. Several athletes will undoubtedly be added to the start list in the coming weeks.
