Check-In & Body Marking

Arrive early.to check in and get body marked.  For safety reasons and for easier racer identification by course marshalls, all competitors will be marked with permanent ink with their race number. 

Transition

  • Only athletes and race volunteers are allowed in the transition area. You may only leave gear for the race in transition.  Leave valuables in your car or in the lockers on the pool deck (quarters required). 
  • Only athletes will be allowed to retrieve their belongings from transition.  Re-entry will be allowed upon completion of the race. We want to ensure the safety of all athletes and the security of their bikes and gear.
  • Be aware of the entrance and exits from transition- called the “chutes”.  Before your race begins, make sure you familiarize yourself with the run entrance chute (from run course to transition), the bike exit chute (from transition out onto the bike course), the bike entrance chute (coming back into transition from the bike course) and the run exit chute (leaving transition for the last time and heading out onto the run course).
  • Remember where your bike and gear are.  After setting up your equipment in transition and before leaving for the run start, make a mental note of where your bike is.  Is it in the middle of transition?  Is it beside the big tree?  Is it near the water station?  Perhaps you can place your favourite towel over your bike.  This will help you quickly find your way to your bike when you are running in to transition after your swim.
  • A water station will be located after the exit from transition.  Make sure you drink lots!

Bike Course

  • Ideally you should be familiar with road rules and proficient at basic bike skills (e.g. signs, signalling, stopping, cornering, riding in a straight line, and riding with other people/passing). Remember the course is not closed to vehicle traffic.
    Keep right, and obey all traffic marshals.
  • Slow down for corners, hazards (i.e. bumps, crossings) and turn-a-rounds.
  • Make sure you know where your turnaround will be.
  • Keep your head up, eyes open and be safe!

Run Course & Finish Area

  • Follow route marshals directions at all times.
  • Familiarize yourself with your race specific route(s).
  • Make sure you know how many laps you have to run.
  • Wear your bibs in the front.
  • Clear the finish area after completing your race to help the timers do their job.
  • Water will be provided on the run but not at the exit of transition.
  • Have fun and be sure to give the other participants lots of space.
