TRANSITION AREA
The transition area is located directly to the back of our building. The transition area is where participants will set-up their bikes, helmet, shoes, clothes, etc. in one area. Please plan to come before your childs heat start time so you can set up their gear in the transition area prior to the start of the race. Your athlete will return to their transition area after their swim portion of the race to throw on clothes and their helmet to continue on to the biking portion of the race. After their biking portion is done, your triathlete will go back to the transition area to park their bike and finsh out the running portion of the race.
SWIM
Your athlete should arrive to the race ready to swim first. Atheletes will be swimming in Club Sport's indoor pools. Pool monitors will be on duty throughout the race. Wetsuits are NOT allowed but kickboards will be available for use if needed. Each wave will have two swimmers per lane. There will be NO ACCESS TO SHOWERS and limited towels available.
Ages 4-6 will complete all laps in our smaller lesson pool. Only one swimming parent will be allowed in the pool with the participant.
Ages 7-13 will complete all laps in our larger lap pool.
There will be volunteers to assist all swimmers.
After their laps, athletes will then exit the pool and WALK to the transition area to throw on clothes, put on their helmet and continue to the bike course found at the exit of the transition area.
PARENTS: PLEASE HELP KEEP THE ENTRANCE AND EXIT TO THE TRANSITION AREAS CLEAR AS RACERS WILL BE ENTERING AND EXITING AT THE SAME TIME.
BIKE
The bike course will start at the far end of the transition area (behind the building). Athletes will exit the transition area by following the portion of the course labeled BIKE in blue on the asphault. When the athletes are done with their appropriate age loops, they will make their way back to the transition area to park their bike and prepare for their run.
Athletes must wear their helmets while walking their bikes through the transition area to exit to the bike course. Training wheels are allowed. All bike distances are approximate
Please let your child(ren) know to slow down when they approach the turn-around point so the monitors can mark their wristband.
RUN
The run will also start in the back of the building. Athletes will exit the transition area by following the portion of the course labeled RUN in red on the asphault
