70.3 · 1 November 2026 · Goa, India
Ironman 70.3 Goa 2026
IRONMAN 70.3 Goa si corre il 1 novembre 2026 nella capitale indiana delle vacanze, sull'Oceano Indiano lato Mar Arabico. Nuoto a Miramar Beach, bici attraverso lo Zuari Bridge, corsa fino al Palazzo del Governatore e ritorno. Il vero avversario è il clima: massime intorno a 32°C e umidità alta. La bici è dichiarata collinare dall'organizzatore (525 m D+ su 91,8 km), la corsa ha indicazioni contrastanti sul profilo. I tempi indicati nelle tabelle sono stime orientative nostre, non dati ufficiali.
Course
Three legs, three different races
Indicative profile · Scheda automatica da fonti pubbliche (2026-11): da rivedere. The organiser publishes the final course in spring: this page updates.
Swim1.9 km
- Nuoto in mare, 1 giro triangolare nelle acque calme di Miramar Beach.
- Temperatura acqua media 26°C: quasi certamente niente muta, verifica le regole sul sito ufficiale.
- Nel 2019 correnti e condizioni variabili crearono problemi nel nuoto di prova e la partenza fu posticipata di 30 minuti: arriva preparato al mare aperto.
- Un commento non ufficiale di un partecipante indica il percorso leggermente corto (~1,6 km): da prendere con cautela.
Bike90 km · 525 m D+
- 91,8 km su 2 giri con 525 m di dislivello: profilo dichiarato 'collinare' dall'organizzatore.
- Passaggio sullo Zuari Bridge, tratto iconico del percorso.
- Segnalazioni da edizioni passate e social: vento costiero, anche contrario, più caldo e umidità elevati.
- Il report 2019 citava asfalto irregolare e buche sul vecchio percorso a 3 giri: il tracciato è cambiato, ma non dare la qualità stradale per scontata.
- Un profilo esterno (PJAMM) indica un percorso più rollante con circa 386 m di salita: riferito probabilmente a una versione precedente del tracciato.
Run21.1 km
- 21,3 km su 3 giri con 101 m di dislivello, verso il Palazzo del Governatore e ritorno a Miramar Beach.
- La pagina ufficiale è contraddittoria: un'icona dice 'hilly', un'altra riga dice 'flat'. Con 101 m D+ aspettati leggere ondulazioni.
- Il caldo monta nel pomeriggio: nel 2019 il caldo vero arrivava dopo le 14:30-15:00.
- Strategia ghiaccio e acqua a ogni ristoro: nel 2019 gli atleti si bagnavano testa e gambe a ogni stazione.

Who raced it, what they say
At launch, pages start from syntheses of public race reports, declared as such. Verified reviews come from athletes who receive the invite within 7 days of the race, with the activity recorded on their device.
Structured fields: finish and leg times from your device, wetsuit yes/no, gear, perceived temperature, what you'd do again and what not, «I'd race it again». Free text is the race report. The linked activity makes it verified without exposing personal data.
The form appears here after the race, for those who connected a device or appear in the official results.
Si nuota con la muta? L'acqua media dichiarata è 26°C: è molto probabile che la muta non sia consentita per gli age-group. Verifica la regola ufficiale sul sito e nella guida atleta prima di partire. Quali sono i tempi limite? I cutoff ufficiali 2026 non risultano pubblicati nei dati raccolti. Il blog di un partecipante cita 8 ore e 30 minuti totali, ma non è un dato ufficiale: controlla la guida atleta. Quanto è dura la bici? 91,8 km su 2 giri con 525 m di dislivello dichiarati, etichettata collinare dall'organizzatore. Aggiungi vento costiero, caldo e umidità: non è un percorso da record, pedala a potenza costante. La corsa è piatta? I dati ufficiali si contraddicono (un'icona dice collinare, una riga dice piatto). Con 101 m D+ su 3 giri aspettati ondulazioni leggere. Il vero problema è il caldo del primo pomeriggio. Che tempo farà? Dati ufficiali: massima 32°C, minima 21°C, umidità alta. A inizio novembre sono possibili piogge, come accadde nei giorni pre-gara del 2019. Il nuoto è difficile? Un giro triangolare in acque dichiarate calme a Miramar Beach. Ma nel 2019 correnti e condizioni variabili posticiparono la partenza di 30 minuti: allenati in acque libere e fai il nuoto di prova. Quando devo arrivare a Goa? Almeno due giorni prima. Nel 2019 expo, pettorale, check-in bici e nuoto di prova erano tutti il giorno precedente, e servono margini per rimontare la bici e acclimatarsi al caldo. Quanto costa l'iscrizione? La pagina di iscrizione 2026 riporta prezzi fino a circa 645 dollari USA. Metti a budget anche voli, trasporto bici e alloggio: un partecipante la segnala tra gli eventi più costosi in India. Com'è il fondo stradale in bici? Nel 2019 furono segnalate buche e asfalto irregolare sul vecchio percorso a 3 giri. Il tracciato è cambiato (ora 2 giri), ma fai ricognizione e tieni pressioni gomme prudenti. Dove conviene alloggiare? In zona Miramar Beach: partenza nuoto e arrivo corsa sono lì, e nel 2019 anche expo e transizioni erano nell'area. Prenota presto, novembre è alta stagione turistica a Goa.
The Q&A is fed by reviews and the rulebook: every answer says where it comes from.
Preparation tips
What to do from today to race day
Se c'è il nuoto di prova il giorno prima (come nel 2019), fallo: ti toglie l'ansia da correnti e ti fa capire l'entrata/uscita a Miramar.
Sole tropicale e gara lunga: crema waterproof prima del via, cappellino o visiera in corsa, come raccomandano anche le guide locali.
Strategia collaudata nel 2019: acqua ghiacciata su testa e gambe a ogni ristoro. Preparati a farlo in modo sistematico, non occasionale.
In passato sono state segnalate buche: in ricognizione memorizza i punti critici e in gara tieni le mani pronte sui freni nei tratti veloci.
Sessioni in ambiente caldo nelle 2-3 settimane prima (o sovravestito) riducono il crollo nella corsa pomeridiana.
Giorno prima
Nel 2019 expo, ritiro pettorale, bike check-in e nuoto di prova erano organizzati il giorno precedente: pianifica di essere a Goa almeno 2 giorni prima.
T1 distante dall'uscita nuoto
Nel 2019 la T1 era a circa 500 m dall'uscita dell'acqua: considera questo tratto di corsa nei tuoi tempi e prova il percorso a piedi.
Sede di gara
Base a Miramar Beach: partenza nuoto e arrivo della corsa sono lì. Cerca alloggio in zona per semplificare la logistica.

Run · 4 min · AI synthesisLa mezza maratona: tre giri verso il Palazzo del Governatore, con il caldo che monta
101 metri di dislivello su 21,3 km non spaventano nessuno: il problema è il sole del primo pomeriggio e come arrivi dal ciclismo.

525 metri di dislivello dichiarati, lo Zuari Bridge come passaggio iconico e un vento costiero che decide chi arriva alla corsa con le gambe.

Wheels for this course
A rule of thumb from this course: 5.8 m of climbing per km and moderate wind exposure. It is guidance, not a count. (rolling)
Front wheel
45-60 mm deep
Rear wheel
Deep wheel (60-80 mm) or disc if you are comfortable with it
Tyres
28-30 mm, tubeless if possible. Choose pressure by weight and road surface, not by habit.
Check the weather and the wind forecast on race week: on windy days, drop a depth step on the front wheel.
Race kit
Fuel and pack, nothing forgotten
Work out carbs, fluid and sodium for this course, split into bottles, gels and bars, then tick off everything to pack from passport to Vaseline.
Start at 60 g/h if you have not trained your gut, 80-90 if you have. Never try new products on race day.
Hot course: drink to thirst plus the amounts shown, favour salt, and use ice and water on the run.
Before the race
Carb load
560-700 g carbs per day for the last 1 day(s)
Breakfast, 3 h before
70-140 g carbs, low fibre, familiar food
On the bike 3:10
Every 20 min · 23 g carbs and about 233 ml
On the run 2:20
