The swim will be held in Crescent Harbor on a triangular course marked by buoys.  Water temperature is expected to be 56-60F, and wetsuits are  highly recommended.Safety personnel will be on the swim course in kayaks.  Entrance and exit from the water will  be on a concrete ramp.

Bike 12 miles
The bike course will consist of two loops on paved roads, beginning with a long gradual climb from T-1 and featuring a short climb just before the end of each loop.  Roads will not be closed to traffic but race volunteers will be stationed at key turns and intersections.

Run 2.7 miles
Runners will leave the transition area for a flat and fast course on a mixture of paved roads and gravel trails.  Athletes will be able to see their competitors on two in-and-out legs, adding motivation to this last leg!
