ROKA Swim Course - 1.9km
The first leg of your IRONMAN 70.3 Port Macquarie journey will take place in the calm and protected waters of the Hastings River as you tackle the 1.9km ROKA swim. This single lap course will start at Westport Park and head North. Remember to have the buoys on your right-hand side, except for the yellow turning buoys which will be on your left side. The swim exit will be back where you started at Westport Park as you head into T1.

Bike Course - 90km
After exiting transition, you will head out onto the bike course via Clarence Street and hit a few rolling hills along Ocean Drive. You will take in the sweeping ocean views and enjoy a picturesque loop down to the Tacking Point Lighthouse before continuing south towards the turnaround in Lake Cathie. You will then return north and tackle the infamous Matthew Flinders Drive climb for the first time before turning for your 2nd lap back in Port Macquarie, and doing it all (including Matthew Flinders) one more time. After your 2nd lap is complete, head back into transition at Westport Park.

HOKA Run Course - 21.1km
Your stunning two-lap HOKA run course will start by heading East. You will pass the finish line before turning around just short of the iconic breakwall where you will experience the cheers and support from locals, loved ones, and TriClubbers. You will then head South down the gently flowing Kooloonbung Creek turning around in the green shady park and passing the giant Goanna. Once you pass across the front of Westport Park, you will start to head North to the turnaround at the end of Settlement Point Road. Then, head back the way you came to complete your first of two laps. On the second lap, get ready to bring it home as you approach the famous red carpet at the Town Green for an electric finish.
