IRONMAN Wales

The Untouched Charm of West Wales

With world-renowned spectator support and epic courses, this is the race that legends are made of. Hosted in the charming Welsh seaside village of Tenby, Pembrokeshire, athletes leave as friends in this unique, inviting and truly special destination nicknamed the “Iron Town”. IRONMAN Wales sees Tenby come alive to a stunning sunrise swim on Tenby’s sandy North Beach, wild bike course scenery along Pembrokeshire coastline, and a fan-filled town-centre run in Tenby.

Swim
The two-loop 2.4 mile (3.8 km) swim course starts at the famous North Beach in the seaside town of Tenby. Crazy crowds along the long run up the “zig zag” stairs and into transition will make this a once in a lifetime experience for any athlete.

Bike
The two-loop 112 mile (180.2 km) bike course takes athletes through the scenic countryside of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Don’t get too distracted by the numerous castles and iconic landmarks – home to one of Harry Potter’s movies!

Run
The four-loop 26.2 mile (42.2 km) run course is an “you-have-to-see-it-to-believe-it” kind of experience. The medieval town walls and picturesque beachfront are lined with tens of thousands of spectators that will push you all the way to the finish line.
