It is an out-and-back route. The 1/2 mile turnaround point will be clearly marked and volunteers will be there to direct riders.

Athletes will return to the bike dismount area and Transition Area. This will be clearly marked and staffed by volunteers.

Riders will stop and dismount in the bike dismount area and walk to and in the Transition Area. Helmets may not be removed until the athlete is at his/her Transition Area. The athlete will then prepare for the run segment. There will be volunteers to assist the athletes. Parents may help in the transition area. The athlete will walk to the Run Out exit from the Transition Area and follow the cones and signs to the running track.

Run:

The run is one or two laps of the track depending on age. Signs and volunteers will direct athletes. Caution should be used while running as there will be other runners on the track who are doing longer distances and will be running multiple laps. The finish line will be across from the stake park in the parking lot. Athletes will walk in the finish line chute and stay in the order that they cross the finish line. A volunteer will remove the tear-off tag from the bottom of the race number. After the tag is removed the athlete will receive a participation medal and may proceed to the refreshment area.
