70.3 Fortaleza BRA Pro Athlete Giude

Friday 17 November 2023

Fortaleza, one of Brazil's most popular tourist destinations, has quickly become a worldwide vacation stop. Vibrant Brazilian culture, spectacular beaches and tropical weather beckon.

The day begins with a one-loop swim starting on the golden sand of Iracema Beach. It's followed by a single loop bike that begins from the Marina Park Hotel (which hosts the pre-race events) and extends through the cities of Eusebio and Aquiraz after passing Beach Park. The run course follows the palm tree-lined streets of Fortaleza, offering breathtaking seaside views. Along the way, athletes pass the historic city center and many famous landmarks including the famous Iracema Statue.

The 2023 IRONMAN 70.3 Fortaleza offers 75 Age Group Qualifying slots to the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship on 14 & 15 December 2024 in Taupo, New Zealand.
