The IRONMAN Pro Series heads to Europe for IRONMAN 70.3 Aix-en-Provence — a race known for its technical bike course, rolling terrain, and tactical racing. This isn’t a pure power course. Athletes must manage rhythm, climbing, descending, and still run fast late in the race. Top contenders include Pierre Le Corre, Rudy Von Berg, Rico Bogen, Laura Philipp, and Imogen Simmonds. With 59 professional men, 38 professional women, a $50,000 pro purse, and 3 World Championship slots for both men and women, every second matters. We break down the course, race dynamics, contenders, and predictions as the Pro Series battle continues to heat up in Europe.
