Ironman Frankfurt (2025)

Ironman Frankfurt is a qualifier for the Kona World Championship. The typical finisher completes the course in 11:47:56, while the top 5% of the field — the zone where qualifying slots are usually decided — finish under 9:35:10. The 180 km bike leg rides at a typical 32.2 km/h. All numbers below come from real historical finishers, not estimates.

IRONMAN Frankfurt 2026 (28 June) was still an official IRONMAN, but organisers shortened it because of a heatwave, with highs of around 39 to 40°C forecast. The 3.8 km swim was unchanged, the bike was cut from 180 km to 125 km, and the marathon became a 21.1 km half marathon. So this page shows 2025, and the 2026 race is left out of our medians and rankings.
