Long Distance Triathlons in Europe
A Long Distance triathlon covers 3.8 km of swimming, 180 km of cycling and a full 42.2 km marathon run. Races are organised under several different banners — IRONMAN, Challenge and others — which means finding every option at this distance has traditionally meant checking multiple websites and piecing together a calendar by hand. This page brings them together in one place, so you can compare dates and locations at a glance. In Europe, the calendar clusters around two main windows: late summer, with races in countries including Sweden, Denmark, Estonia, France and the United Kingdom, and a spring-to-early-summer stretch spanning Spain, Portugal, Italy and Switzerland. Cities such as Kalmar, Copenhagen, Tallinn, Vichy, Calella, Cascais and Cervia each offer a distinct course profile and climate, so the choice of where and when to race is worth considering alongside your training timeline.
