Transition Area

Celebration Plaza in the heart of White River State Park will offer a beautiful setting for the transition area. This large grassy area is only steps from the swim exit and provides a great location to start and finish each leg of the triathlon and duathlon.

Duathlon

The first run of the Duathlon will complete 2 miles of the run course. (See course map under the "Run" section below).

Swim

The swim portion will take place in the White River State Park Canal. The Canal is about 40 feet wide and 4 feet deep. Both Olympic and Sprint distance events will be a point to point swim. Faster swimmers will start first with slower swimmers going last. There will be an Open division for the Olympic distance that will start first. If you start in the Open division, you will be competing for the overall awards and will be ineligible for age group awards. After the Open division starts, swimmers will start in 2 second intervals. The sprint distance event will not begin until the Olympic distance swimmers have finished, this will be at approximately 8:30am.

Bike

Ride through a scenic and fairly flat 12.5 mile loop (Olympic distance will complete two loops). The course will take you through downtown streets, along White River and Riverside Parkway, and around parts of IUPUI campus. Volunteer and police protection will be provided throughout the entire course.

Run

This fast, flat and scenic course will take you alongside White River, up to 10th Street, and then back along the otherside of the river. The distance of the course is 3.1 miles (Olympic distance will complete 2 loops). There will be a water and Gatorade station at every mile.

Parking

Parking is available at the Indianapolis Zoo for a flat rate of $6.00. Parking is also available in the White River State Park underground garage for a flat rate of $5.00. Both parking areas are within a short walking distance to the event site.

Gear Check

Gear check will be provided to all participants. Volunteers will be located at the swim start for both the Olympic and Sprint distances and will bag and label materials as requested. Items may be picked up post race at the Gear Check tent. Gear Check will be open until 12:00PM. Any items that are not retrieved will be taken back to Tuxedo Brothers Headquarters. Any items not claimed within 30 days will be donated to a local charity.

Refreshments

Water/Gatorade stations will be located at every mile along the run course as well as the finish line. Other refreshments and light snacks (fruit, cookies, granola bars, muffins, etc.) will be provided in the packet pick-up tent after the race.

Clydesdale/Athena Division

You must be a 220+ pound male or a 165+ pound female to qualify for these divisions. Competing in one of these divisions will make you ineligible for age group awards.

Fat Tire Division

In order to qualify for the Fat Tire division, you must have a mountain bike with a minimum of 1.5 inch tires and upright handlebars. Competing in Fat Tire will make you ineligible for age group awards. There will be both a male and female Fat Tire divison.

Timing

The event will be timed using the IPICO multi-sport timing tag system. Each participant will be given an orange or black timing tag that will need to be secured properly to the provided ankle strap. The ankle strap, with the timing tag attached, MUST be worn around your ankle during the duration of the event. If you are a participant on a relay team, the timing tag and ankle strap will serve as your relay "baton" and will be passed to each team participant as they finish their portion of the event.

CUT OFF TIMES
