New for 2012:
PARENT CHILD DIVISION - All parent child participants will go out in one wave. The Parent Child division will be the last wave of the weekend. It will go off after the final Women-Only Sprint wave. This differs from previous years when there was a Parent Child division in both the sprint events. Entry into the Parent Child division is open to male and female participants.
DETOUR! There is a detour on the bike course at the bottom of Toro Canyon Road. You will NOT be making the hard left hand turn at the bottom of Toro Canyon onto Foothill/ 192. Instead you will continue down Toro Canyon Road to Via Real. There will be a Mandatory stop as you turn LEFT onto Via Real.
AGE GROUPS!
All age group athletes must participate in the age group division corresponding to the athlete’s age on December 31 of the year of the event. The age group will be calculated automatically. [Check the USAT site]
USA Triathlon Helmet and Equipment Rules [Check the USAT site]
Since head trauma and injury can result from falling off a bicycle at any speed, USA Triathlon will vigorously enforce use of chin straps to protect the health and safety of participants in sanctioned events.
Chip Timing.
Yes, we will have Chip Timing for the 2012!
