Frequently Asked Questions

1. Read ALL the information on this web site.

2. Listen to the Course Talk carefully and make sure you get answers to all your race-related questions.

3. If possible, get body marked on Friday at the Expo. There will be long lines on Saturday (race morning).

4. Plan to arrive at the transition area early! That means 5:00am-5:45am. If you get there late, you may be shutout and prevented from racing. Allow plenty of time for traffic, parking, getting to the site and getting your gear into transition. Transition closes promptly at 6:30am.

5. Remember to bring along (2) water bottles already filled for the bike. Bring water to drink on the way to and before the race.

6. The transition area closes at 6:30am and re-opens at approximately 1pm (after the last participant is out on the run), regardless of which wave you're in. Do not leave anything in transition that you'll need after you finish the race. For reasons of safety and fairness, we will be strictly enforcing this rule. If necessary, adjust your travel, work or social plans around this schedule before you get to race day.

7. Be sure to hydrate during the race! There will be plenty of Gatorade and water on both the bike and the run course.

8. If you get into trouble in the swim, roll onto your back and raise an arm in the air. If you experience mechanical difficulties during the bike carefully pull over to the right and remove yourself and your bike from the course so as not to endanger other athletes. Make any necessary repairs off the course.

9. Keep to the far RIGHT at all times on the bike course unless in the immediate act of passing. Always pass on the LEFT and then move back to the right after you have safely passed the other cyclist. Use your voice to call out to people that you are passing and look over your shoulder before making a passing move on the left.

10. After finishing, be respectful of other athletes in the race. Please treat other athletes at least as well as you would like to be treated.
