Ironman Triathlon. An Ironman Triathlon is one of a series of long-distance triathlon races organized by the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) consisting of a 2.4-mile (3.86 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.25 km) bicycle ride and a marathon 26.2-mile (42.2 km) run, raced in that order and without a break.
Somehow, folks have gotten it into their head that they have to do an Ironman in order to be a ârealâ triathlete. That is a total crock of shit. Riding your bike for 6 hours might not be your idea of a good time. You may have a need for speed that simply canât be fulfilled by an 18-mile training run. Or maybe you simply just donât want to do an Ironman, even though everyone says you should.
