Twelve hours was all it took for the inaugural Ironman 70.3 Centrair Tokoname Japan event to sell out on Tuesday 20 April. According to World Triathlon Corporation (WTC), huge interest came in from all over Japan and the world for Ironman 70.3′s Japanese premiere, to be held on Sunday 19 September.
Although the individual age group quota of 650 has now been reached, for those still wishing to compete at Ironman 70.3 Japan, a limited number of special places are on offer to athletes purchasing travel packages, as well as the relay team category.
Situated near the city of Nagoya – the third largest incorporated city in Japan – the race unfolds around the Tokoname City precinct surrounding the Centrair International Airport, a spacious and scenic area south of the city.
The Centrair International Airport will act as the activity hub of the race course that will traverse the Tokoname City and surrounding environs. The event expo, race office and awards banquet will be located inside the airport terminal itself, offering what will be a unique Ironman 70.3 experience for athletes and fans alike.
With general entry to Ironman 70.3 Centrair Tokoname Japan now sold out, competitors wishing to compete in 2010 at an Ironman 70.3 event in the Asia-Pacific region are invited to look to the following events:
