Features of the Ironman Marbella 2022 edition

An Ironman is made up of 3 races: swimming, cycling and running. These are the characteristics of each of the races in this edition.

Swimming

The Ironman Marbella 2022 swim course starts and finishes on Levante Beach in Puerto Banús. It includes a 1.9 km course (the equivalent of 1.2 miles).

Once the swimmers are out on the course, they will have to make a left turn and 2 right turns to return to the swim start.

A detailed map is available on the event’s website.

Bicycle

The bike course will also be very demanding, so it will only be suitable for those who have really trained.

It comprises a circuit with a length of 90 kilometres (exactly 56 miles).

The start of the circuit is on the Golden Mile, just before entering the city of Marbella.

Participants will have to pass through municipalities such as Monda, Coín and Cártama before returning to the transition that will take them to Puerto Banús. It will be here that the race will finish.

Running

The final challenge of Ironman Marbella 2022 is the running challenge. It is on a par with the previous two events in terms of difficulty.

The circuit comprises a total of 2 laps with a length of 21.1 km (equivalent to 13.1 miles). It is located along the promenade of Marbella.

As a curiosity, the race will finish at a point very close to the sea.
