Participants receive a long sleeve race hoodie by District unless they opt out, post-race refreshments, finisher medals, and awards for top finishers. The race is sanctioned by USA Triathlon and every participant must hold a USAT annual membership or purchase a one day membership during registration. There is a park entry fee on race day.
Race timing uses triathlon chips that must be worn on the left ankle and returned at the finish. Lost or unreturned chips will be charged to the athlete. Wetsuit use follows USAT temperature guidelines and may affect award eligibility. The bike course has no on-course water stations so cyclists must self-support. Transition is on rough ground near the swim exit and athletes may leave footwear there. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
