The swim course is a rectangle set as close to shore as possible and run as loops according to distance. All bike courses are out-and-back. The run follows the beach road and trails at the road end; it is described as pancake flat with full shade on the trails. The transition area remains closed until all bikes are re-racked to control traffic and protect participant safety. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
