Per Bittner

Per Bittner of teamTBB Germany won Challenge Barcelona with a stellar bike and run.  Congrats Per on your amazing win, the first for teamTBB Germany in 2012! Per had a stellar day starting with a solid swim and moving onto the bike where he took control of the race putting in a very fast bike split.  Once off the bike, Per did not look back as he ran away with the race and nabbed the win over a top field of professional men. Despite the hot and humid weather, Per was not daunted and raced strong all day.

Congrats Per on running away with your first big win of 2012! It looks to be a great start to for teamTBB Germany as the European race season kicks off this summer.  We can’t wait to watch you and the rest of teamTBB Germany dominated the Ironman distance events this summer.
