About the race
The ET Indoor Triathlon at the ET Training Center in the Central Park Business Complex in Lisle is an indoor, timed triathlon composed of three consecutive segments completed in roughly one hour. The venue is located at 4225 Naperville Road, Lisle, IL, and parking access is from Warrenville Road. The training center sits within the LifeStart Fitness Center / Central Park Athletic Center inside the complex.
Each athlete uses a dedicated swim lane in a 20 yard lap pool with no deep end; standing and walking in the pool are permitted. The event sequence is fixed: a 10 minute swim followed by 10 minutes to transition to the spin bikes, a 30 minute spin segment, 5 minutes to move to the treadmills, and a 20 minute treadmill run. Organizers note allowing about 3 minutes to adjust bike setup and recommend arriving early to locate the pool, bike area, treadmill and locker room. Waves start with multiple athletes sharing the schedule and only one athlete per lane at a time.
Spin bikes are equipped with both flat pedals and Shimano SPD compatible pedals; cleated shoes are optional and regular running shoes may be used. Central Park provides lockers with keypad locks, showers, soap and towels. Participants are advised to bring swimwear, goggles, shorts, shirts, shoes for bike and run, personal hydration or MP3 devices if desired. Water, sports drink and some recovery food are provided. Results are based on ranked distance covered in each segment and are posted within 24 hours. Registration fees vary by timing of registration and deferral and wait list options are available.
