The Ironman triathlon series is expanding its reach, with a new event scheduled to take place in Riviera Nayarit, Mexico on November 10, 2024. This exciting news was announced by Joanna Jordan, Vice President - Managing Director of Latin America for The IRONMAN Group.
The new Ironman 70.3 Riviera Nayarit triathlon will offer a unique and challenging course for athletes.
