IRONMAN Austria athlete guide: what to check

The athlete guide is the organiser's own document for the race, published on the organiser's own race page. It is the source of truth, and these are the parts that change your plan and move from year to year.

Check-in times

When athlete check-in opens and closes, and what ID to bring. Race number and timing chip are handed out there.

Bag rules

Which bags there are (morning clothes, bike gear, run gear and special needs where offered), when each is handed in, and when transition closes.

Wetsuit rule

The water temperature limits for wetsuits. Officials make the call on the day from a measured temperature, not from the forecast.

Course

Maps, laps and elevation for the swim, bike and run, plus the drafting and mount line rules.

Cut-offs

The time limit for each leg. They differ between races and between a Half and a Full, so read the ones for this Full.
