IRONMAN 70.3 events

What is an IRONMAN 70.3

IRONMAN 70.3 is a long distance triathlon covering 1.9km swim, 90km cycling and 21.1km of running. The sum of these distances in miles is 70.3, so these events are called Ironman 70.3. All events give qualifying spots to the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship taking place in November in Flordia. The IRONMAN 70.3 series counts 22 qualifying races and the World Championships in Florida. Two WTC sanctioned events are organised by TRIANGLE.
