We’re just a day out from official race day for the 2025 IRONMAN World Championship women’s race, and that means it’s time to talk about ROAD CLOSURES.

We won’t bore you with all the written details. Instead, take a look at the following maps below to find out what roads will be unavailable Oct. 11 throughout Kailua-Kona and from Kona to Hāwī.

Also, be sure to watch the video featuring members of Hawai‘i Police Department and how to be as safe as possible while the race is happening and during the last few days racers are in town.
