About the race
The Teams Triathlon Relay at Mirani Swim Centre is a team-only event for groups from workplaces, schools, clubs or friend groups. Each team has two or three members and each member completes one or two legs of the triathlon. Team categories include Corporate, School and Mates, with Male, Female and Mixed divisions; juniors may compete in a senior team but the team will then be entered in the senior category. Race formats offered are Enticer and Sprint distances for teams, and a Mini Kids triathlon with age-based distances.
Swim, bike and run legs are completed in sequence with transitions managed in a fenced transition area. Timing chips worn on the left ankle record individual and team times and must be passed between team members in transition. Swim laps take place in pool lanes; the Enticer is four 50 metre laps and the Sprint is eight 50 metre laps.
Cycle legs are out-and-back courses with the Enticer at one lap and the Sprint at two laps. Run legs follow marked paths with one lap for Enticer and two laps for Sprint teams. Race day procedures include bike racking in transition, helmet rules, obeying road rules on the cycle course, and course maps available for study. Presentations award team trophies and prizes for the fastest Sprint teams. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
