VNG IRONMAN 70.3 Vietnam Experience
Participants will be treated to a fast and scenic course that begins with a 1.9-km ocean swim in front of the beautiful Hyatt Regency Danang Resort & Spa.
From there, athletes will enjoy a scenic two-loop 90-km bike course that takes them along Danang’s pristine coastline and by some of the city’s key landmarks.
The final 21-km out-and-back run course is flat and passes by many of Danang’s famous beach resorts before finishing at the foot of the legendary Marble Mountains. With tropical conditions, this warm-weather event is the perfect mid-season race to prepare athletes for their summer IRONMAN events.
