the race to Rwanda.<\/p>\n<p>Pereira said, during the race launch, that the beauty and nature of the country during his previous visits as a tourist and, most importantly, the story of Rwanda\u2019s journey to a pacey rebuild inspired him to add the country to the Ironman 70.3 race calendar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we came here a few times ago to discover the gorillas, we also discovered this place here in Rubavu and we came up with this idea of how we can expose it to the rest of the world,\u201d Pereira said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThinking of the best option to do it, we came to realise that Ironman would be a big sport event that can successfully help in sharing the beauty of Rwanda with the world,\u201d he added<\/p>\n<p>Athletes participating in Ironman 70.3 Rwanda will take on a 1.9km swim at the waterfront of Lake Kivu, a 90km bike course, and a multi-lap 21.1km run course that spans the shoreline of Lake Kivu. The tournament, scheduled for August 14, is expected to attract between 1,500 and 2,000 participants from different countries across the globe.<\/p>\n<p>According to Nelly Mukazayire, Chief Executive Officer of the Rwanda Convention Bureau (RCB), having Rwanda as the latest Ironman 70.3 race destination shows how far the country has come to establish itself as the home of sports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving Ironman 70.3 in Rwanda is really exciting. The milestone is going to give a lot of visibility to the race destination. It is a unique opportunity for us, both in sports and business aspects.\u201d Besides Rwanda, only three other African countries \u2013 South Africa, Morocco and Egypt \u2013 will be home to Ironman 70.3 events this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/rwanda\">Rwanda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Rwanda.
