Slots Ironman Lanzarote
Ironman Lanzarote is always one of the slower races on the Ironman calendar. It consistently draws a mid-sized field for the challenging course and the standard 40 Kona slots on offer to age groupers. This year’s race doesn’t deviate from this trend, times remain typical for Lanzarote. The bike course was significantly changed in 2018. Monday morning meant that it was time for the post-race Ironman UK awards ceremony to find out if I had done enough to qualify for Kona. Eventually the waiting was over; it was confirmed that there were 4 automatic Kona slots available in M30-34 and Brian Fogarty already had his Kona slot from Ironman Lanzarote.

Ironman Lanzarote, one of the longest-standing Ironmans in Europe, is known as one of the toughest courses that covers the distance. On Saturday, 1,600 athletes took on the brutally hot course for bragging rights and a shot at one of 40 qualifying slots to the 2017 Ironman World Championship. First competitors took to the two-lap swim course at Playa Grande, Puerto del Carmen. Then it was onto the toughest part of the day—the bike course. It’s well known for strong winds and leads athletes around the island with over 2,551 meters of climbing. Finally, the two-lap run course led competitors along the flat sea front of Puerto del Carmen, toward the airport and back.
