Ironman Access Short Lived

Yesterday the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC) introduced Ironman Access, a membership program with people paying $1000 annually for among other things the opportunity to register for Ironman events before registrations open to the general public.

Even though the program sold out in less than a day there was a HUGE backlash of criticism from the grassroots community.

The WTC listened and today rescinded the program.  Watch THIS STATEMENT form WTC President and CEO Ben Fertic.
