Last slot: the slowest M30-34 qualifier’s finish time and age-group place. Needed: the finish time that equalled the pool’s age-graded cutoff for M30-34 at that race — any faster finish earned a slot. Age-group winners qualify whatever their time. Before any rolldown.

How 70.3 Worlds qualifying works

Every age-group winner gets a slot. The rest of a race’s slots go by age-graded time: each finish time is multiplied by IRONMAN’s factor for the athlete’s age group, and the fastest adjusted times take the remaining slots — from 2026, in separate women’s and men’s pools. So the “needed” time differs by age group even within one race. Each race page models the allocation athlete by athlete, including rolldown.

Chasing a 70.3 Worlds slot in M30-34?metrica builds your season around the race and the time you need, then adapts every week. Syncs to Garmin and Wahoo; the first week is free.
