Registration Changes
Can I change my race start time so I can race
with family or friends?
No - your race start time will be determined by your bib number (click <<Course>> and then click <<Swim Waves>>) and bib numbers are assigned randomly. We encourage people who want to race together to register together but we cannot ensure that you will be able to race at the same time as your family or friends.
Can I get a refund if I cancel my registration?
Unfortunately we are not able to refund any entry fees.

Timing
How will the timing for each racer work?
The clock starts when you enter the pool and stops when you cross the finish line.
Are the transitions timed?

There will be three separate times (one for each leg of the triathlon) and an overall time listed in the official race results.
How will I find out my official time?
The official results will be posted on our website within a day or two after the race has concluded. We will also send all racers a copy of the Official Race Results by e-mail within several days after the race has concluded.
