IRONMAN Races Back to Frankfort
Sept. 3, 2022
IRONMAN returns to northern Michigan this weekend, and dozens of brave, tough locals will be competing in the 70.3-mile race across water and land. The main competition will be held in Frankfort on Sunday, Sept. 11, with a 1.2-mile swim in Frankfort Harbor, a 56-mile bike ride on M-22 and other Benzie County roadways, and then a half marathon in Frankfort and the surrounding area. (We’re exhausted just thinking about it.) For some, it’s a weekend to stay home and off the roads, but for others, it’s a chance to revel in the excitement of the event. In addition to watching the race itself, you can sign up your future triathlete for the IRONKIDS Fun Run on Saturday, Sept. 10, at 9am in Frankfort’s Open Space Park ($20) or partake in Vita Bella’s pasta dinner on Saturday night. Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 night of, and proceeds go toward the Frankfort High School football and track programs. Get more details at ironman.com/im703-michigan.
