Located in the heart of the mythical Côte d’Azur, athletes come from all over the world every year to take on this remarkable race and be part of triathlon history. The Nice Triathlon became IRONMAN France event in 2005.
Athletes will begin with a beach start and embark on a two-loop, 2.4-mile swim in the pristine waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The 112-mile bike course is the jewel of IRONMAN France as it follows much of the original Nice Triathlon route and passes through villages and mountains. There are 5,000 feet of challenging climbs, but athletes will enjoy beautiful panoramic views. The 26.2-mile run will include a flat and fast four-loop course along the Promenade des Anglais. Athletes can expect impressive spectator support along the route.
There are 50 qualifying slots for the IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona for Age Group Athletes
