Half Ironman Triathlon Insurance
A Half Ironman Triathlon (also known as Ironman 70.3) consists of a 1.2-mile swim, a 56-mile bike ride and a 13.1-mile run. This gruelling endurance challenge was launched in 2005 in the UK as a spin-off to the original Ironman race.
SportsCover Direct specialises in insurance for active people. Each year we insure thousands of sports men and women to take part in the activities they love. Our Half Ironman Triathlon insurance is available to cover races in the UK and abroad.

More About Half Ironman Triathlon
Whilst elite athletes typically complete Half Ironman Triathlons within four hours, the races normally have cut-off times for each component, and the overall finish time must usually be within 8 ½ hours from the start of the swim.
Ironman Triathlons first came into being as a result of a dispute over who were the fittest athletes in the world. Was it the winners of the Waikiki Roughwater Swim (2.4 miles), the Around-Oahu Bike Race (112 miles) or the marathon runners of the Honolulu Marathon (26.2)? It was decided to combine all of these races together to create the ultimate test of endurance, granting the title of Ironman onto the winner.
