Event Information:

This event is organized by the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) and the next Ironman competition takes place on 26 June 2011. The swim course is two laps in the Coeur d'Alene Lake. The bike course stretches along just over two laps of the Coeur d'Alene Lake and Hayden Lake. Finally, the run course runs over the marathon distance in two rounds at the Coeur d'Alene Lake.

All of the courses at Ford Ironman Coeur d'Alene are two-loop affairs, and both the bike and the run pass by the finish line and transition area four times, so spectators are in for a great day. The bike course is more challenging than it initially would appear. The course is very technical, with enough difficulty to keep things interesting.
