The Ironman Hawaii isn’t just a race – it’s the original. Since its debut in 1978, the race on the Big Island has become the most prestigious competition in the world. Anyone who competes here has come a long way and faces not only the competition but also the extreme conditions of the Pacific island.
The Hard Facts about Ironman Hawaii:
-
Strictly limited field: Every year, around 90,000 athletes worldwide try to qualify. Being there means you're in the top 2% of your sport.
-
The magic distance: 3.8 km swim in the Pacific, 180 km cycle through the lava desert and 42.2 km run to the legendary finish arch on Alii Drive.
-
Relentless elements: The infamous Mumuku winds on the Queen Ka’ahumanu Highway and temperatures well over 30 degrees make Kona arguably the toughest place in triathlon.
-
From the starting gun at the pier to the infamous Energy Lab—every meter of the course is the scene of athletic milestones and dramatic decisions. Here, you’ll follow in the footsteps of legends like Dave Scott, Mark Allen, and Jan Frodeno.
Kona is unpredictable and magical at the same time. With the qualification you have got your ticket for an unforgettable experience. We at Hannes Hawaii Tours make sure that you can fully concentrate on this experience.
