COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — Coeur d'Alene will host its 20th annual Ironman triathlon on Sunday, June 25.

The race will start at Coeur d'Alene City Park and Beach and finish between First and Second Street on Sherman Avenue in Coeur d'Alene.

The course for the full triathlon would remain the same, but participants would essentially run the half-Ironman course twice. The race itself is about 140.6 miles. The duration of the event will be much longer than the half-Ironman and participants will have 17 hours to complete the race. 

During the race, attendants will go through the 140.6-mile race that includes a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride and 26.2-mile run.

"Not only will your race experience be one that you will remember for your entire life, but I am confident that you will want to keep coming back after you meet our first-class volunteers and spend time in our incredible community,' Ironman Race Director Zach Ukich said in a statement. 

Ironman started in Coeur d'Alene in 2003 and was a huge hit. A half-Ironman was added in 2016 and held again in 2017 alongside the full race. The city ended the contract for the full Ironman in 2017 due to declining participation from both athletes and volunteers. However, it returned in 2021.

Registration for this year's event is already closed.
