About Ironman Raleigh:
Athletes will begin their day with a 1.2-mile swim in Jordan Lake in Chatham County. The 56-mile bike course will take athletes through rural Chatham and Wake Counties before entering downtown Raleigh to transition to the run. The two-loop, 13.1-mile run course winds through downtown, around the Capital Building, out Hillsborough Street, and through NC State University before heading down Fayetteville Street for an amazing finish in City Plaza.
More than 3100 participants are expected. Approximately 50 percent of the athletes are from out of state. Participants are coming to Raleigh to participate in the event from 41 states and nine countries.
Race hosts include the City of Raleigh, the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau, and the Greater Raleigh Sports Alliance. The Greater Raleigh Sports Alliance estimates that the event will have a $1.5 million economic impact on the area.
