 - Subaru IRONMAN 70.3 Canada will take athletes through a 1.9-kilometer (1.2-mile) swim, 90-kilometer (56-mile) bike and 21.1-kilometer (13.1-mile) run on the same terrain as Subaru IRONMAN Canada. The race will start with a single-loop 1.9-kilometer swim in the pristine waters of Alta Lake. Athletes will enjoy a lakeside transition before starting a one-loop 90-kilometer bike course that will travel south to the Callaghan Valley, north through Whistler where crowds usually line the Sea-to-Sky Highway to Rutherford Creek, before returning to the heart of Whistler. Athletes will complete the bike course adjacent to Whistler Olympic Plaza. The run will proceed along the Valley Trail around Lost Lake and along Green Lake, and end with a short loop through Whistler Village and finish down Blackcomb Way. 

Course Information:

Subaru IRONMAN 70.3 Canada will feature a self-seeded rolling start. Athletes will enter the water in a continuous stream through a controlled access point, similar to how running road races are started. An athlete's time will start when they cross timing mats under the arch. Athletes will be directed to self-seed on race morning based on their projected swim time. Volunteers and staff will be in the staging area with signs and will assist with this process. Self-seeding will not be mandatory, but will be encouraged.

The swim course will take place in the clean, shallow waters of Alta Lake at Rainbow Park - just a short drive from Whistler Village. It will be a rolling start, and all swim buoys must be kept on the left. Athletes will not be required to exit the water to begin their second loop. The water temperature ranges between 18 and 22 degrees Celsius throughout the summer months. Expect a comfortable wetsuit-legal swim.

Athletes will enjoy a lakeside transition before starting a one-loop, 90km (56mi) bike course. Athletes will travel south on the Sea-to-Sky Highway before climbing a short distance into the Callaghan Valley, site of the Nordic skiing events during the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. After descending back to the highway, athletes will pass through Whistler on their way north to a designated turn-around point at Rutherford Creek. Athletes will then return to Whistler via the Sea-to-Sky Highway.

The one-loop, 21.1km (13.1mi) run course follows the meandering Valley Trail past Lost Lake and famous Green Lake. Spectators are able to reinvigorate athletes as they return through Whistler Village before finishing adjacent to Whistler Olympic Plaza on Blackcomb Way.
