Live Tracking → 🌐 Official Website →IRONMAN 70.3 Weymouth returns on Sunday, September 20, 2026, to the seaside town of Weymouth, Dorset, on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast — the same waters that hosted sailing at the 2012 London Olympics. The weekend opens with registration and an expo at Lodmoor Country Park, and around 2,800 competitors are expected on race day.
The 1.2-mile swim takes place in the naturally sheltered Weymouth Bay, usually calm, with a self-seeded rolling start at 7:15 AM. The one-loop 56-mile bike course heads inland through the rolling Dorset countryside, up to King's Stag and back via Godmanstone and Dorchester — widely regarded as one of the hillier, tougher bike courses on the UK 70.3 calendar.
The 13.1-mile run offers a welcome contrast: flat and fast along the Weymouth esplanade, run as two and a half laps past cheering crowds. The day concludes with an awards ceremony and World Championship slot allocation at Weymouth Pavilion. Live tracking: rtrt.me.
