Mau Mendez, Holly Lawrence Highlight 70.3 Cozumel MEX

Friday 25 September 2020

Cozumel is not only a beach-goer's paradise, it’s also a seasoned IRONMAN host. Off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, the area has over 14 miles of reefs for exploring, plus archaeological ruins, a national park, and endless expanses of turquoise water and white sandy beaches.

The 1.2 mile swim is in the ocean, and it starts and finishes in front of the dolphin platform at Chankanaab Park. The bike course starts at the Chankanaab Park Parking lot (T1), and ends along side the esplanade of the Presidencia Municipal (T2), using the main highway that circles the Island of Cozumel. The run course is paved throughout and is mostly flat. It starts on Rafael Melgar Avenue, just near the corner of 11th Avenue in front of the Barracuda Hotel. Leaving T2 the course turns right and goes to the northern part of Cozumel where the first turnaround is located. Runners return south to the run start where they will complete the first of TWO 10.5km loops.

The 2020 IRONMAN 70.3 Cozumel will offer qualifying slots to the 2021 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in St. George, Utah, USA.
