Organiser's Description

IRONMAN 70.3 Dubai takes place next to the World-famous Burj Al Arab - an exotic race in a desert paradise, fast, flat and the gateway to your brand new personal best time.

Athletes start and finish their sea swim next to the Jumeirah Beach Hotel. The one-loop bike leg then leads them through the city, before they venture out and into the Arabian dunes. This is considered one of the fastest bike courses in the World - if winds doesn't come into play. The run starts at Jumeirah Beach and leads athletes along the coastline.
