MAY I SIGN UP AS AN ELITE RACER?Athletes who would like to participate in the ELITE category should be prepared to do the Super Sprint Triathlon distance twice through. The Endurance Category features a .25 mile swim, 9-mile bike and 1.5-mile run two times through. Come test your skills - Go through the course once and get your hiney's back in the lake for a second swim, second bike and second run, 6 transition times, 1 total time. Cut off time is 2 hours and 30 minutes. HINT: On the second go round you will want to go directly from the run to the swim w/o your wetsuit (too hard to put a wet wetsuit on especially when you are tired and sweaty…suck it up) NOTE: We ask that you be certain you can beat the cut off time to join this category. The elite racers are the first wave to go. Athletes entered in the Elite Category will: Be able to compete for merchandise prizes (Top 3) Receive an official Race Time Receive a Finisher's medal This category is NOT eligible for age group awards FEE: $85 per triathlon NO CHANGES TO ANY ENTRY CATEGORY WILL BE MADE ON RACE WEEKEND |

WHAT IS THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS CATEGORY?Designed for those who want to do the race with family, friends or training partners of varying ages. If this is over 75 people, we need to split the category into waves. When registering for this category please list the names of those you want to compete with, so we can ensure everyone is together. This is a non competitive category; you will receive a finisher's medal, but no placing awards) This category is for those who want to compete with and support friends and family through this adventure.

PROCEDURE FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS START: In order to ensure that "Race Times" are able to be provided to all Family and Friends Category participants as promised, Family and Friends category participants will need to start the triathlon in a uniform manner: PLEASE FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS: WEAR YOUR TIMING CHIP AROUND YOUR ANKLE. The timing chip tracks your progress in the water, on the bike and the run course; collecting these "times" provides the data for your overall "Race Time" for your triathlon. Approach the beach and Swim Start "Corral Area". You will start in one of the last waves - so stay back a bit and look for all of the other FAMILY AND FRIENDS Category bathing caps. If your goal is to do the Race with a particular person/persons - gather with these people at the Swim Start. When the "Corral Boss" calls out "FAMILY AND FRIENDS COME ON DOWN" --approximately 75 participants will be directed to the SWIM START to the water's edge. Wait there for a start command from the announcer. |
