- The village of Calella of the Barcelona-Maresme region, on Spain’s eastern coastline on the Mediterranean Sea, hosts the most popular end of season race in Europe. A sea swim in the bay, a fast bike course and a flat run, this race has clocked sub-8 hour times making it a sure-fire personal best course. Wrapped up in Spanish sunshine with a finish line on the beach and a spirited after party, Qatar Airways IRONMAN Calella-Barcelona is a European series winner.

When even the promo video shows pelotons on the bike course, you know you have a problem....
To be honest it wasn't as bad as I expected given the number of people on a 3 lap course. Yes there were definitely a small number of pelotons, but it wasn't quite as crowded as I expected.
The town is great, venue is great, spectators are awesome. However, i did not like the bike section, too many turns, round abouts, and not sufficients signings, some crosses are dangerous,.
And there is too much drafting if you are good swimmer. It is a bad idea to have the 70,3 full on the same days. Too crowded which makes the hole bike race very dangerous.
Hence 1 person died, and 2 were injured in a collison. It was a narrow pass (due to a traffic work). It was a two way pass but it was a such narrow pass that (not more than 3 meters) people thought it was one way pass. I believe due to unsuffcicient signage, athletes had a head on collision. They mentioned this pass during the briefing but there is no way you can guess where it was. After this incident they put many volunteers there warning people to slow down. They should have that from the beginning not after the incident. I saw a guy being heart massaged. From that point on, i was so terrified, and felt sorry for the guy that (later learnt he was a Polish heart surgeant) i lost all my concentration and rode in absolute aimlessness...The worst part is after the race ironman continued celebrations as if nothing had happened: I believe Ironman has absolute responsibility in this accident, and if i was a relative or friend of the polish guy i would definately sue them
The bike race 4,3 km longer and it is not as flat as it is advertised, the totoal climb is aroun 1000 meters. Most of the run race is on soil and sand which makes running very unpleasant. Yes the run course was also 700 meters longer.
I would not recommend this race to anyone, just because it is not a safe race.I hope they do not delete my comment. I am taking a screen shot anyway
