If you're looking for the ultimate IRONMAN 70.3 race destination, Lake Tahoe is the race for you. IRONMAN 70.3 Lake Tahoe athletes will share the course with IRONMAN Lake Tahoe athletes, but will finish earlier in the day and can return to the finish line to enjoy the festivities of the midnight IRONMAN finish line.
Race morning starts at the Kings Beach State Recreation Area where sandy, beach-front shores deliver athletes to the clean, clear waters of North Lake Tahoe. After the lakeside transition riders enjoy spectacular views down the 21-mile length of the lake as riders enter Tahoe City. The course takes athletes through the Truckee River corridor, following the Truckee River past Squaw Valley and into the town of Truckee. Here the course turns south back toward the lake, rolling past Northstar California and the start of the climb to Brockway Summit at a 7,200 foot elevation.
Back at Kings Beach, athletes go back through Tahoe City before finishing at Squaw Valley, home to the 1960 Winter Olympics. With a transition at Squaw Valley, runners head back up the Truckee River corridor along the Truckee River bike path. The relatively flat run course follows one of the most scenic stretches in the world before returning back to Squaw Valley and the satisfying finish of IRONMAN 70.3 Lake Tahoe.

IRONMAN 70.3 Lake Tahoe offers 30 qualifying slots for the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Zell am See-Kaprun, SalzburgerLand, Austria.
