SUMMARY: [K226] Goto Nagasaki Int. - Nagasaki JP
DESCRIPTION:The all-new Goto Nagasaki Int triathlon will run on the same course as Ironman Japan on Fukue Island in the Goto group, just south of Nagasaki. Fukue is a volcanic island and it provides a most challenging course, with a bike leg that may tame the toughest competitors. Competitors will swim from an amazing beach, some 20kms from the final finish of the race.  They will then bike a course that's being eulogized as a tough, no holds barred Euro-type course, with even a mini-version of the Alp D'huez included! The bike course heads from the swim, back to Fukue, around one of five long extinct volcanoes, then continues circumnavigating the island, which is far from flat!  The run course goes two laps of the local airport at sea level, but becomes undulating as it too 'runs' around Mt Oni volcano. Eventually competitors arrive at the finish in the center of town and the old traditional fort, which was built to defend the town against the American 'Black ships' in the mid-1800s. It took 50,000 workers 15 years to build it!
