Don't let the slow pace of life in Oregon fool you; the Beaver state has some high-speed tricks up its sleeve. From the nearly vertical ski slopes of Mount Hood, to the wild and scenic rivers that criss-cross the state, there is no shortage of opportunities for fast-paced thrills in Oregon—and IRONMAN 70.3 Oregon is no exception. Boasting one of the fastest swims on the IRONMAN 70.3 circuit, this wildly popular race calls first-timers and PR-seekers alike to Salem, where they'll find a blazing-fast 1.2-mile swim in the Willamette River, a 56-mile ride through Oregon’s scenic wine country, and a flat 13.1-mile run on paved and shaded park trails!

So, what does fast mean to you? Find the answer in Oregon.

The Tour de Fuzz (Tdf) has been described as a one-of-a-kind event and the “FUNNEST RIDE” in Northern California. Some say it’s the finish line party, all-you-can-eat BBQ, gourmet sides, unlimited local IPA beers and wine. Others claim it’s the scenic wine country routes and full-service rest stops. While many riders simply enjoy the SAG (Support & Gear) vehicles with off-duty cop/cyclists and the police swag giveaways.

The Tour de Fuzz includes three scenic wine country ride options. Turn-by-turn printed directions and rest stop maps will be provided at rider check-in. Routes are well marked by colored arrows on the pavement, too.

For 100 mile riders, make sure you stop to pick up a timing chip at the bottom of the big climb and see how you stack up against other riders. you could win a polka dot jersey!

Santa Cruz embodies the laid-back, sandy-feet, “no shirt, no problem” culture that makes the California Coast so uniquely… California. Even passionate, driven triathletes (who’ve made Type 2 fun an art) pause their watches to take in the September sunset over the harbor.

IRONMAN 70.3 Santa Cruz has a long history in Santa Cruz, merging a chill, local-race feel with the high-end IRONMAN experience athletes expect. The course features a 1.2-mile ocean swim around the wharf, a 56-mile rolling bike along scenic Highway 1, and a flat half-marathon through parks and along coastal bluffs, finishing at the famous beach finish line. If it’s a laid-back season closer you crave, look no further than IRONMAN 70.3 Santa Cruz for the ultimate surf city experience.
