Course Marking/Volunteers

The run course will be marked so the athletes will know what direction to head, but we will also have volunteers out on the course to help along the way.

DUATHLON -Run #1 Information

The FIRST run segment will take place at the transition area. ALL DUATHLETES will run approximately ½ mile. A run course map will be provided at registration. Once the DUATHLETES complete the first run and return to the transition area they will do the same Bike and Run course that the TRIATHLETES will complete.

Walking/Resting on the run course

Athletes may walk or stop to rest on the run course, but again this time will be counted towards their final time.

TRIATHLON -Swim Information

The course

The swim will begin in the water with all athletes starting at opposite ends of the pool and the race time will start on the Starter’s signal. The pool will have 2 boys which swimmers must round. The short course (ages 7-10) is out and back, rounding the far buoy only once. The long course athletes (ages 11-14) will complete 2 laps of the course, rounding the far buoy twice. Each lap (down and back) will be approximately 100 meters. All swimmers will get out of the pool at the same end from which they started. The swim course map will be posted on the website and provided at registration and reviewed during the athlete meeting. It is every athlete’s responsibility to know and follow the course in each of the disciplines.

Bike Course

Athletes will walk/run with their bike out of the transition area to the bike mounting area. Once on the bike, athletes will head north along Willow Road and take an immediate left turn onto Northern Acres. THE BIKE COURSE IS A LOOP COURSE ON STREETS, SO STAY AWARE OF POSSIBLE TRAFFIC and FOLLOW VOLUNTEER INSTRUCTIONS. The bike course will be sufficiently marked and staffed with volunteers to keep the race safe for athletes. The 7 – 10 year olds will complete one loop while the 11 – 14 year olds will complete 2 loops. Athletes are responsible for counting their own laps. Spectators are encouraged to help as well. After the Athletes have completed the bike leg of the course, he/she will then dismount the bike and walk/run it back into the bike to run transition area. The bike course map will be provided at registration.

Run Course

The run segment will take place on the sidewalks along Willow Road and around the back side of the parking area. Some running will be on grassy surface for approximately 200 meters before the finish. The 7 – 10 year olds will run approximately ½ mile while the 11-14 year olds will run about a full mile. A run course map will be provided at registration.
