2013 Bridge to Bridge Triathlon at Oak Island:
Course Information:
Swim: The swim course is rectangular shaped, with the swimmers traveling in a clockwise direction. Participants will start with their small swim wave (40-50 athletes) waist deep in the water. Keeping all the large orange buoys on right hand side you'll swim in a clockwise direction. Once the 1/3rd mile is completed you'll exit the water at the southern end of the course (left side on the map) and run 200m over soft sand/grass to the transition area. We'll have plenty of lifeguards and volunteers to keep you safe in the water. If for any reason you're not able to complete the swim we'll safely pull you back to the beach and you may continue racing under an "unofficial" status.
Bike: The bike course is a lap course with one out and back section on the bridge! The course can be described as flat and fast; perfect for the beginner attempting their first triathlon, or even the seasoned veteran looking for a new personal best split! The largest inclines on course will be over the bridge! We'll have plenty of volunteer marshalls and police officers to ensure your safety and keep you on route!

Run: The 4 mile run is pancake flat at zero elevation, a dream to set your personal best! We'll have aid stations at miles 1, 2, and 3 to keep you well hydrated and fueled up! Best part of the out and back format is you'll see competing friends and spectators twice. For the more competitive racer you can guage the competition!
