Your runway

38 weeks to race day: base season

Plenty of runway. This far out, the win is a boring, consistent base rhythm: aerobic volume, strength, technique. The structured block starts closer in; what you do now decides how high it can climb.

“The biggest 70.3 on earth and a genuine cyclist's course. If you have ever done a Mallorca training camp you already know whether you will love this bike leg.”

The race

Mallorca in May is where European triathlon gathers. The swim is in the sheltered, shallow Alcudia Bay. The bike heads into the Serra de Tramuntana on the roads that made the island famous for cycling, so it is a climbing course and gearing matters. The run is flat along the coast. It sells out well in advance, so enter early rather than hopefully.

The course

Swim1.9 km
Lap count not published
Swim course map for IRONMAN 70.3 Mallorca: the official route drawn on an OpenStreetMap basemap

Inside the Bay of Alcúdia, well protected from open sea, starting and finishing at Playa d'Alcúdia. White sand and turquoise water, and genuinely sheltered, so conditions are rarely the problem here.

One lap800m gain

One lap from the bay into the Serra de Tramuntana, over the Coll de Femenia. 800m of climbing on a half distance is a lot, and it is concentrated rather than spread, so this is a course you pace by the climb, not by the average.

Run21.1 km
3 laps
No course map

IRONMAN publishes no route file for this leg, so there is no course map to draw from.

Three flat laps around Alcúdia, over bridges and canals with the bay in view, finishing on the beach about 50m from where you started swimming. A neat circle to close the day on.

Bike elevation, drawn from the official GPX. The vertical scale is held at a fixed 200m so a flat course looks flat rather than being stretched to fill the chart.

Not yet confirmed for this edition: swim lap count, cut-off times, aid station spacing, water temperature. We publish these only once they are on the official course page, so check there before you pace off anything here.
