Overview
Event Format The IRONMAN 70.3 is a triathlon event which requires athletes to swim, cycle and run. The ‘70.3’ refers to the total distance, in miles, which is covered during the event. The race itself lasts one day, but pre-competition events and a post-competition award ceremony are often held on the surrounding days.
In the IRONMAN 70.3 event athletes swim 1.2 miles (1.9km), complete a 56-mile (90km) cycle and finish with a 13.1 mile (21.1km) run. Each of these segments is half the distance of the original IRONMAN triathlon.
Time taken to complete the triathlon varies on numerous factors such as level of the athlete, the terrain, or the weather during the race. Yet the typical range can be from around four hours completed by elite athletes, to the imposed race cut-off, which normally occurs at eight and a half hours after start time.
The elite athletes starting in the event have an earlier start time, and are later followed by a rolling age-group start.
