The Sydney International Regatta Centre will once again play host to Ironman 70.3 Western Sydney this Sunday, September 22.
The course is nestled at the base of the Blue Mountains and uses the protected Penrith Lakes, located at the Regatta Centre, for the swim.
The bike course includes breathtaking views of the Blue Mountains. The flat run course takes in the Nepean River along the scenic Great River Walk before runners return to the iconic Regatta Centre venue where supporters have plenty of places to cheer on athletes and to celebrate as they run down the finish chute.
Ironman 70.3 Western Sydney is one of Penrith’s biggest sporting events and this year promises to be no different with hundreds of competitors from Australia and around the world set to take part.
