The water temp has been averageing between 70 and 73 degrees depending on the rain amounts.
Our USA Triathlon Certified official will take the water temp on race morning to determine whether we are wet suite legal or not. Here are the rules of as a USAT Sanctioned Event:
USAT rules state that competitors may wear wetsuits if the water temperature is 78 degrees or lower. USAT rules also state that if the water temperature is between 78.1 – 83.9 degrees, competitors may wear wetsuits but will not be eligible for awards.
Relay teams are a fun way to try out a triathlon with friends even if you are unable to do one of the disciplines!
Here are some pointers and rules for relay teams:
1. All members of the team have to pickup their packets together with picture id
2. The team will only receive one timing chip, one bib, one bike sticker and one swim cap. The person racing must wear the timing chip and pass it off to their team mate waiting at their bike spot in transition.
3. Relay members are permitted to walk about freely
4. The entire team can cross finishline together, and they all get a medal!
