About the race

Experience the thrill of IRONMAN 70.3 Barranquilla in Colombia’s northwest. Discover a coastal city where athletic endurance meets vibrant festivals, cultural heritage, and the soul of Colombia.

Barranquilla, Colombia’s fourth-largest city, sits on the Caribbean coast at the mouth of the Magdalena River. Known as “La Puerta de Oro” (Golden Gate), it thrives as a major port and cultural hub, famous for the UNESCO-recognized Carnaval de Barranquilla and modern landmarks like the Gran Malecón and Ventana al Mundo.

The event takes place on April 4th, 2027. Participants will tackle a single-loop swim at Playa Puerto Mocho, a single-lap out-and-back bike course along the city outskirts, and a scenic run along the shore of the Río Magdalena.

Good to know

How do I add my story to a race registration?

Log into your IRONMAN Profile and navigate to the Registrations page. Hover over the event of your choice, click on Race Details, and click on Tell Us Your Story to share your background and inspiration.

I cannot login to my IRONMAN profile

For login issues with your IRONMAN profile, visit the Help Center at https://my.ironman.com/help.

How do I confirm all races are under the same profile?

Log in to your IRONMAN Profile at https://my.ironman.com and click 'Registrations' to view your race results and upcoming races. If a race is missing, you likely have multiple profiles.

My races are not showing up in my profile

If your past or upcoming events are not appearing in your profile, it is likely that you registered using a different email address. Try logging in with any other email addresses you may have or contact support.

Are two-person Relay Teams permitted?

Yes. A two-person relay can complete the race with any combination of disciplines. Relay teams may later add a third person if they wish.

Can all team members cross the finish line together?

No. Only the run leg relay participant can cross the finish line. If other team members cross the finish line with the runner, the team will be disqualified.

Can I be a team member on two different relay teams?

No. Team members are only allowed to compete on one relay team.

What will a Relay Team need to bring to Athlete Check-In?

All relay team members must have a photo I.D. If not yet registered, you will need to do so at the Solutions table within athlete check-in. Bring a credit card to make the USAT one-day license payment if you are not already a member.

How do I request to switch a Relay Member?

Contact the event email address to make any relay team member changes. Provide details of the team member you wish to cancel and the full name and email address of the new team member.

Do all Relay Team Members need to attend Athlete Check-In?

Yes. All teams MUST arrive together for Athlete Check-In to ensure that all materials are accounted for and individual waivers are signed.

What is the Withdrawal Policy for a Relay Team?

Relay captains are eligible for a partial refund of the registration fee. Please review the withdrawal policy to reference the partial refund options.

Does each Relay Team Member receive a timing chip?

No. The relay team will receive one timing chip at bike check-in, which acts as a baton passed between team members in transition.

Do all Relay Team Members need to be the same age and gender?

No. Relay team members can be comprised of a mix of gender and age, provided all participants are 18 years of age on race day.

If a team member fails to make the course cut-off, can other team members still complete their leg of the race?

No. Failure to complete the swim or bike course within the time constraints will result in a DNF for the entire team.

If I am the swimmer or cyclist, how do I receive my finisher medal and finisher items?

The runner will collect all 3 finisher medals and hats for the entire relay team.

How does transition work for relay teams?

If a relay pen is provided, it is where the timing chip is passed. If not, the cyclist and runner meet at the bike rack. The biker must have the chip from the swimmer before un-racking and must rack before passing the chip to the runner.

How does pricing and registration for a Relay Team work?

Upon registration, the team captain creates both a Team Name and Password and pays the full registration fee. Team members then register themselves under the 'Team Member' category using the team name and password.
