Vinfast Ironman 2024 World Championship in Kona on October 26 – It’s the Men’s Turn!

This month, the spotlight is set to shine on one of the year’s most thrilling athletic events as around 2,400 men from around the world gather for the highly anticipated Vinfast Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.

Scheduled for Saturday, October 26, 2024, this iconic endurance race promises to be an unforgettable experience. Following the women-only race held in Nice, France last month, the men will now showcase their strength and resilience in this legendary competition that draws athletes from across the globe.

Every year, Kailua-Kona on Hawaii’s Big Island hosts an extraordinary endurance challenge that begins with a 2.4-mile swim in the stunning waters of Kailua Bay. Competitors then embark on a 112-mile bike ride along the picturesque Queen Ka’ahumanu Highway, followed by a grueling 26.2-mile run that brings them back to Kailua-Kona. Make sure to arrive early to secure your spot and witness this iconic triathlon as the event kicks off in Kailua Bay at 6:25 AM!
