A half triathlon, often referred to as a "70.3," consists of three disciplines: a 1.2-mile (1.9 km) swim, a 56-mile (90 km) bike ride, and a 13.1-mile (21.1 km) run. This distance is half that of a full Ironman triathlon, making it a popular choice for athletes looking to challenge themselves without the full commitment of a longer event. Races can take place in various settings, including open water for swimming and diverse terrains for biking and running. It requires significant training and preparation, catering to both novice and experienced triathletes.
It depends on what the Triathlon is...Sprint Distance is usually a swim of about a half mile (0.47). Olympic or International Distance is a swim of about one mile (0.93). Then there is the half-Ironman (70.3) or Long Distance Triathlon as they are sometimes referred to which has a swim of 1.2 miles. Then the ultimate Triathlon that many work toward which is the full Ironman distance and that has a swim of 2.4 miles.
To find the distance the athletes swim, subtract the biking and running distances from the total distance of the triathlon. The total biking distance is 110 miles and the running distance is 23.5 miles, which adds up to 133.5 miles. Subtracting this from the total distance of 135.7 miles gives 2.2 miles. Therefore, the athletes swim 2.2 miles.

Ironman 70.3 refers to the total distance covered in the race, which is 70.3 miles or approximately 113 kilometers. This distance is divided into three segments: a 1.2-mile (1.9 km) swim, a 56-mile (90 km) bike ride, and a 13.1-mile (21.1 km) run. The "70.3" signifies the combined length of these three disciplines, making it a popular half-distance triathlon event.
