Swim details: loops are 2,112 ft (644 m) with half-loop swim-line length 1,056 ft (322 m); loop counts vary by distance. Lake depth is shallow (about 8-9 ft); normal water temperatures average 65–70°F so wetsuits are recommended. Colored swim caps are required; no flotation devices or fins are allowed.
Bike details: the measured loop is 6.009 miles (9.670 km). The course is mostly flat with a few rollers and two medium hills. Helmets are mandatory, drafting is prohibited, and adequate front and rear lights are required for night riding. Multiple bikes may be used.
Run details: the loop is 1.00769 miles (1.621719 km) on asphalt. Headlamps and rear visibility lights are required after dark. Crew support must remain within the race village; on-course pacing by crew is not allowed.
Event operations: entries are managed via UltraSignUp, timing uses MyLaps hardware, and Race Day Scoring provides intraday and post-race results. All races are sanctioned and insured by USA Triathlon; a single-day USAT pass is required. The organizer is working with IUTA on optional programs that may include additional requirements. Solo athletes attempting a Double or greater must submit a physician-signed medical release before race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
