IRONMAN 70.3 Duisburg.
Your best day in Duisburg.
Sportpark water, an open road out towards Moers and a stadium finish make Duisburg a race with distinct chapters. Your job is to move between them without turning the first fast split into a debt on the run.

Your day in Duisburg
What could you race?
I’m Tom, the coach behind Sense Endurance Coaching. Tell me where you are now and I’ll show you what a strong day in Duisburg could look like.
The course behind your race
Leave the rush for the stadium.
The 2026 route moved from Sportpark regatta waters over the Brücke der Solidarität towards Moers, then returned for run circuits near the arena. The 2027 event is listed at Sportpark Duisburg, but the detailed new roads and loops still need confirmation. Use the earlier course to understand the demands, not to memorise every turn.
Brücke der Solidarität, prior outward bike
Ride the first open road under control
Flat, fast roads make it easy to ride harder than planned. Hold your target watts through the first loop.
Watch the watts, not the speed. Fuel early.
Moers direction, later bike stage
Keep power even through repeated turns
Use the familiar second loop to confirm effort and finish your nutrition before three run laps.
Stay aero. Finish planned nutrition.
Sportpark Duisburg, opening run circuits
Take the first stadium-side kilometres gently
Let the first pass through the park feel easy, not fast.
Easy first aid station. Check posture.
Schauinsland-Reisen-Arena, prior finish
Save enough to enjoy a strong final entrance
Only progress once the first two laps have held together.
Stay tall. Choose the last move late.
What to check in race week
Confirm the final 2027 Sportpark swim, bike roads towards Moers, run circuits, transitions and stadium finish. Older Innenhafen routes are different; don't mix their directions with the 2026 layout. Check the actual closure and aid plan before race week.

Your plan, in race week
Prepare for Duisburg
Build the legs.
Practise the decisions.
A finish range gives you something to work towards. The preparation is specific to this race: calm regatta-water swimming and measured riding through urban road changes lead to a run whose stadium finish is earned rather than assumed.
I’m Tom. With Sense Endurance Coaching, I’ll build that preparation around your life, follow how you respond and adjust the work as you get closer to Duisburg.
