Racers must show their PHOTO ID and if applicable their USAT membership card or pay the one-day USAT fee of $15. The youth fee is $10 and is for an annual USAT membership.

NO ID, NO USAT CARD, NO RACING, NO EXCEPTIONS. USAT POLICY

There will be signs posted for parking; follow the signs and volunteers’ directions.

A Mandatory Pre-Race meeting is scheduled 15 minutes before the start of each race (poolside 7:45 & 8:45am)

Race Identification

Packets will contain 2 separate race numbers.

The sticker number is to be attached to the bike frame. This number will be utilized for race identification and to allow the removal of your bike from the transition area.

The bib number should be pinned to your clothing or worn on a race number belt during the bike and run portion. It is mandatory on the run course.

Listening Devices

Based on USAT rules, no listening devices will be permitted on the course. While these may aid your training, they make you and others around you unsafe on race day. You will be disqualified if you choose to ignore this rule. Safety of everyone on the course is our #1 goal. Keep your tunes for training. NO EXCEPTIONS, NO DEBATES, NO REFUNDS.

FYI, if you are injured during the event, a listening device cancels any USAT insurance claim.

Timing Chips

Timing Chips will be distributed beginning Sunday at 7:00 am poolside for the first event. Once you get a chip, you cannot cross the timing mats near the pool. Be aware of this or you could mess up everyone’s times.

Volunteers will remove Timing Chips immediately after you cross the finish line. If your chip is not returned, you will be charged for it.

Race Day Street Closures

Railroad Street will be closed from Livingston St to NW Union St intersections. That stretch of Railroad St runs the length of the city pool.

Race Day Traffic Control

Monticello City Police and Piatt County Police will partner to control the busiest intersections on race day, including the intersection at the entrance to Allerton Park and the Monticello Country Club. Volunteers will help with traffic control for intersections that are less frequently used.

Course Notes

The bike course is largely open to traffic. All intersections will have traffic control with race marshals and/or police, but racers should pay attention to their surroundings and race accordingly. If in question, follow police directions; don’t trust the traffic.

The Bike turn-around is approximately half-way from the transition area; the road will be marked in advance of the turn-around.

The run course is mainly closed. It is closed once you are on the trail.

Please review both the bike and run course routes on the website map. You are expected to know the courses; it is not the responsibility of the volunteers or police.

Hydration/Restrooms

Water and Hammer Nutrition’s HEED will be available at the Start, in Transition, at the Finish and at the hydration stations.

Restrooms are located in the Pool area. There are no on-course facilities due to the relatively short distances.

Medical personnel will be at the Start/Finish and on course. Ambulance and Police departments can be reached at 911.

Food & Refreshments

Racers will receive pizza, fruit, cookies and drinks after their race. Please show bib for lunch. All volunteers will receive a lunch but must wear their volunteer shirt to receive.

Fluids will be available at several locations on site, but we request that only racers and volunteers consume these drinks.

Please review the SITE MAPS which will be located around the aquatic center for racer and spectator movement patterns and site orientation. Maps are also available on the website.

Course Marking

The course will be marked with yellow paint directional arrows on the road and volunteers will be on course.

There will be directional arrows and/or signs when course changes occur. Volunteers will be on the course for guidance.
