 _  2017 IronMan Maryland Triathlon:


 begins with a 2.4-mile swim in the fresh water of the Choptank River on the Delmarva Peninsula. Water temperatures can vary between 73 and 79 degrees Fahrenheit. The 112-mile bike takes athletes through Dorchester County and into the aforementioned wildlife refuge. The course is flat, fast and scenic. The day finishes with a 26.2-mile run on flat country roads offering numerous straightaways—opportunities for athletes to size up their competition.

One thing that makes this course unique is its 112-mile bike course, taking athletes through the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge—a critical waterfowl sanctuary for birds migrating along the Atlantic Flyway and containing nearly one-third of Marylandʼs tidal wetlands. The refuge consists of over 27,000 acres of freshwater impoundments, tidal wetlands, open fields, and mixed forests. The refuge is also home to over 250 bird species, 35 species of reptiles and amphibians, 165 species of threatened and endangered plants, and numerous mammals that can be spotted throughout the year in the region's marshes, forests, meadows, and fields.

Course Information:

Swim Start and Transition will be located in Great Marsh Park. Athletes will begin their day with a 2 loop swim in the Choptank River.

The 112 mile 2 loop bike course is flat and fast; with a potential for wind. The course utilizes a majority of the IRONMAN 70.3 Eagleman course working its way through Dorchester County and into the rural Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge.

The 26.2 mile 3 loop flat course will utilize a large portion of the IRONMAN 70.3 Eagleman run course. Athletes will run through downtown Cambridge and will finish their day at the historic Long Wharf.
