Ironman 70.3 Swansea

About

IRONMAN 70.3 is a triathlon comprising of a 1.2 mile swim, a 56 mile bike ride and then a 13.1 mile run (a half marathon), all to be completed consecutively within 8 hours 30 minutes.

A race that delivers in so many ways, combining outstanding natural beauty and rich history with an exciting course and renowned Welsh support. 

SWIM - The 1.2-mile, one-loop swim begins at the Prince of Wales Dock and bends back on itself before athletes swim around the outside and exit where they started. Supporters will be able to line the majority of the swim course to cheer their athletes on.

BIKE - The IRONMAN 70.3 Swansea bike course sets off from East Burrows Car Park, along Cambrian Place and on to the A4067. This road will take athletes along the curve of Swansea Bay, past Mumbles Beach and the Pier, before athletes turn back right on themselves and into the Gower.

The scenic route weaves along the country roads and through pretty villages, passing spectators hot spots and two aid stations on it's way. The route then takes the B4436 back onto the A4067, along the bay, into the city and back into East Burrows Car Park where Transition will be.

RUN - From Transition, the run course is anbsimple out and back twice along the beautiful Swansea Bay. Athletes will pass two spectator hotspots, the Tri Club Village, three aid stations and Red Bull, before taking on the last lap. The only change on the second lap is that athletes will continue along Oystermouth Road and into Museum Gardens, where they will run down the red carpet and complete IRONMAN 70.3
