The Big Picture: Ironman is one of the most popular and grueling triathlon events in the world. Athletes must swim 2.4 miles, cycle 112 miles, and then run a full marathon of 26.2 miles. The full-distance IRONMAN is the pinnacle of the sport and includes 12 events around the world, culminating in the VinFast IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. The IRONMAN 70.3 series includes 113-kilometer (70.3 miles) races, which are half the distance of the full-distance races, and culminates in the VinFast IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship.

What they are saying: Julia Polloreno, Vice President, Content Production and Distribution for The Ironman Group, says, “We’re excited to deliver another full year of live race programming for both full-distance IRONMAN Series and half-distance Ironman 70.3 Series globally. The broadcasts will feature some of the top race destinations around the globe and bring audiences closer our racing than ever before. We couldn’t think of a better place to start than with the iconic 2023 Athletic Brewing Ironman 70.3 Oceanside triathlon in Southern California, where the origins of the sport lie.”

The bottom line: Ironman’s global broadcast schedule for the 2023 triathlon season will allow fans around the world to watch some of the top athletes in the sport compete in both full-distance and half-distance races.
