Transition area map

Swim Course: 400 Meter Pool Swim

The swim will take place in the competition pool at the Club at Spindletop Hall and will be 400 meters in length. The swim will be "snake style" so swimmers will swim down and back in each lane, always staying to the left in the direction they are swimming. Upon returning to the start end of the pool, swim under the lane line to enter the next lane until you've completed all eight. Flip turns are optional. Athletes will be required to slide into the pool and will be instructed to "go" when it is time for them to start. THERE WILL BE NO DIVING OR JUMPING allowed for the start of the swim. Any athlete that jumps or dives to start the race will be disqualified, no exceptions! There will be 15 seconds of spacing between athletes.
