Bahrain to host Ironman Middle East 70.3 Championship

Manama : His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Representative of His Majesty the King for Charity Works and Youth Affairs, Chairman of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports and President of Bahrain Olympic Committee, affirmed that organisation of this year’s Ironman Middle East 70.3 Championship will differ from previous years, in addition to the placement of swimming, cycling and running race tracks in one area, Bahrain Bay.
HH Shaikh Nasser stressed that the Kingdom’s regular organisation of the Ironman Middle East 70.3 Championship reflects its position as the home of triathlon in this region.

The Ironman Middle East 70.3 Championship will be held on November 25. The Organising Committee preferred to hold its events in one area, Bahrain Bay, for several reasons, primarily ease of access for the audience, which will achieve a high attendance rate.
