Race day procedures include a registration tent and event village at the finish area, race pack pick up, bike racking in Transition for Individual entrants, and information boards with course and parking maps. Timing chips are issued in race packs and must be returned at the finish. Swim rules require wetsuits; swimmers start in waves and complete the specified number of laps. Cycle and run courses use lap formats with marshal instructions, left-side passing rules and drink stations on the run. Age-group trophies and overall male and female trophies are awarded according to the listed age categories. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
