How the day is laid out

The swim is held in the sea. The wetsuit call is made on race morning, against the temperature measured then.

The organiser publishes 1.9 km of swimming, 90 km on the bike and 21.1 km of running.

The swim uses a rolling start: athletes enter the water a few at a time. The water is usually around 17 °C at this time of year.

The bike course is flat.

The run course is flat.

Typical temperatures for the month run from 10 to 18 °C. The overall cut-off is 8 h 30 min.

The race was first held in 2021.

The Adriatic measured on race day

ironman.com measured the sea at 17 °C in 2024, 19 °C in 2025 and 17 °C in 2026, with race-day highs from 13 °C in 2024 to 22 °C in 2025. Under IRONMAN rules, a wetsuit is compulsory below 16 °C: these readings sat just above that threshold.

The swim is one anticlockwise loop off the lighthouse beach, on the border between Jesolo and Cavallino. Athletes then run 250 m and cross a bridge to reach transition. The single 90 km bike loop is flat, past the Venetian lagoon to Cavallino, then over the bridge of boats at Cortellazzo to Eraclea. The run is three 7 km laps and ends on the beach.
