Be a Volunteer at Ironman 70.3 Washington, Tri-Cities – Here’s How
If you don’t plan to participate as an athlete in the Ironman 70.3 Washington in Tri-Cities on September 22, 2024 - you can still be a part of this amazing event by volunteering.
What is the Ironman 70.3?
2,500 athletes will begin their 70.3-mile journey at Howard Amon Park with a 1.2-mile swim downstream to Columbia Point. Then they transition and embark on a 56-mile bike ride, which will eventually circle back to Columbia Point. The last leg of the event is a 13.1-mile run along the Columbia River. It will take hundreds and hundreds of volunteers to assist the athletes and for this first-ever event in Tri-Cities to be a success!
