How does the Age Group Slot Allocation Work?
“Age Group” refers to a grouping of athlete peers based on their gender and age range. For example, ‘Male 25-29’ is one Age Group, and ‘Female 25-29’ is another. Your Age Group is determined by your age as at December 31 of the year of the event. For example, if you are Male and turn 25 in 2024 then your Age Group Category for any race in 2024 is M25 – 29.

This is the Official Sports Nutrition of the IRONMAN Global Series. Proven at the front of the race, in 2023 both Sam Laidlow and Lucy Charles-Barclay fueled their world championship victories with Maurten's Hydrogel Technology. It's the innovation that enables athletes to consume more carbohydrates at race intensity with less risk of stomach discomfort. On-course in 2024, 2025, and 2026, all IRONMAN athletes will have access to Maurten Hydrogels and Solids.
GEL 100 and GEL 100 CAF 100 are the official Hydrogel Sports Fuel to the IRONMAN Global Series. Bring them to the race as a part of your fueling strategy or, as a back-up, grab what you need in the race from the on-course fuel stations. Both gels deliver 25g of carbohydrates per sachet through a unique blend of fructose and glucose (ratio of 0.8:1). The GEL 100 CAF 100 includes 100mg of caffeine per serving. The gels are unique. The Hydrogel Technology creates a firmer structure - not a runny syrup like traditional energy gels - so it's easier to consume during the race. There are no added colors, preservatives or flavors - just what you need to fuel performance. Nothing more.
