The safety of all athletes on course is our priority. Our event team considers each race/event individually to determine the entry requirements. Due to course conditions of it being a multi-loop/multi distance run course as well as being too hilly on the bike course and too narrow the IRONMAN Australia is not suitable to be completed using wheelchairs (racing and non-racing)/handcycles or with prams. While this race is not suitable, our goal is to make everyone’s racing dreams a reality so if you would like information on other events where the course is able to accommodate wheelchair participation or any other course accessibility needs, please email us at: australia@ironman.com

We are grateful for each and every one of our volunteers, and as a thank you for your time and efforts we provide each volunteer with:

• An event volunteer t-shirt
• Refreshments
• Eligible groups will receive a donation for the group’s participation.

This is a spectacular event and we encourage our community to join, support and be part of the fun!

As a volunteer you may be asked to assist in the following areas:

• Event registration
• Guiding athletes as a course marshal
• Directing athletes at the finish line
• Manning water stations or turnaround points
• Guiding spectators at pedestrian crossing zones
