The swim is an out and back beginning on the west side of the beach and ending on the east side. For swim events athletes may choose a mass start in groups of about 50 or a time trial start lined up by 500-meter pace. The bike course is a loop that leaves the park onto county roads; riders are instructed to keep to the left inside the park and to the right outside the park. Run legs follow paved trails inside Kill Creek Park and finish in the north parking lot of the beach. For the duathlon both runs are out and back routes starting near the beach house and transition area.
Packet pickup is scheduled the day before at a local bike shop and on race morning at the park. An Athlete Guide with pre race information is provided by email in the week before the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
