The Race Dreams Are Made Of
Picture your perfect race, and IRONMAN Western Australia has to come pretty close.
There’s something about Busselton that just hits right. Maybe it’s the beach town vibe, maybe it’s the access to the wonders of the Margaret River region, or maybe it’s just the feeling like we’re on holiday whenever we’re here. Whatever it is, we’ve been coming back for over 20 years, so it must be good.
Whether you’re on the start line for the first time or your chasing a fast time, the course here in Busselton is made for you. A calm swim in Geographe Bay kicks things off, before a flat-as-your-hat bike and run course will make things no harder than they have to be to get you all the way to that finish line and achieve whatever goal you’ve set.
Swim
Incorporating the superb Busselton Foreshore start that we know that you love, the course sees swimmers stay closer to shore, meaning less exposure to the weather and better swim conditions. This 2-lap course sees athletes exit the water after the first lap, complete a short run, and re-enter the water to start their second lap.
Bike
The fast and flat 2-lap course starts by heading along the coast initially, before entering the spectacular Tuart Forest. There’s great views of both coast and bushland to keep your mind occupied, as well as some great wildlife to keep an eye out for.
Run
The relatively flat 4-lap course heads east before heading back west to pass along the iconic Busselton Jetty. Enjoy views across the amazing Geographe Bay and soak up the atmosphere along the newly redeveloped Busselton Foreshore.
