IRONMAN 70.3 BAHRAIN

IRONMAN 70.3 Middle East Championship Bahrain promises to be more than just a sporting event. The spotlight event is the carefully designed swim, bike, and run course that will bring both locals and guests ever closer to Middle Eastern history and heritage. The “70.3” refers to the total distance in miles (113.0 km) covered in the race, consisting of a 1.2-mile (1.9 km) swim, a 56-mile (90 km) bike ride, and a 13.1-mile (21.1 km) run. Each distance of the swim, bike, and run segments is half the distance of that segment in an Ironman triathlon.
