The Race Weekend Guide covers final details for race weekend and includes parking suggestions, set-up times, course information, race kit pickup instructions….and much more.  The Guide is sent to the email address provided at registration and it will also be posted on our home page under the News section.  Please review the Guide carefully as it answers many of the questions we receive leading up to race day.

We post all information related to the events on the website, Facebook and Twitter. We also recommend checking our FAQ page, the Rules for Safety page and the COVID-19 updates page.  We are confident your questions will be answered with these resources.

It is not a requirement for athletes to continuously swim their designated distance. Resting by using the lane ropes or side walls is permitted and encouraged.
