IRONMAN 70.3 Western Australia 2026
A flat 70.3 at Busselton: a swim off the Foreshore, a fast single-loop bike through the Tuart Forest and a two-lap run past the Jetty.
9 weeks to race day: a full block fits
This is the sweet spot. A complete 12-week recovery-led build fits inside the runway with room for a base phase in front. Anchor the block to race day and every week between now and then has a reason.
Building for this one? 70.3 training plan covers the sessions, the weekly shape and how the block is paced. The R.A.C.E. Framework explains why it is built that way.
Adapt my training to this course.
Commit to the date and the work gets a shape: your countdown starts, the emails arrive in step with your build, and the app anchors a recovery-led block so the final week lands exactly on race day.
One confirmation email, then the road begins. Registering for the race itself stays with the organiser.
“The organiser describes a fast, flat single-loop bike and a relatively flat run past the Busselton Jetty, so pacing and fuelling decide the day.”
