Additional Information
Pre-Race Clinic - $5.00
Saturday, May 5th - 2:00 PM at Hidden Cove Park (meet in parking lot)

Playtri's Lead Developmental Coach, Morgan Johnson, will join participants and their parents for a pre-race clinic at the race site two weeks before race day. Participants will get to ride and run the course, review the swim, practice transitioning quickly and easily, and of course parents and participants will all have the opportunity to ask lots of questions! Hope to see you there!

Participants should bring bike, helmet, running shoes, and a water bottle. Parents are also encouraged to bring bikes and helmets to join us in riding the course as an added safety measure for participants.

For more information about the clinic, please email Coach Morgan at morgan@playtri.com. No RSVP necessary.

Is your athlete new to the sport of triathlon? Make sure he or she has the best first-time experience possible with Playtri's "Race Ready" Program! One month before the race, one of our USAT certified coaches will provide your child with an individual training plan, group practices and clinics, and individual advice on training and racing.
Race registration is included in the price - look for the Race Ready option on Active.com!

Email our Lead Developmental Coach Morgan Johnson at morgan@playtri.com for more details.

All finishers will receive a finisher’s medal when they cross the finish line.

This is a chip timed event. Each participant will be required to wear a timing chip in order to be counted in the results. Timing chips are assigned to participants according to bib number. Please pick up your timing chip the morning of the race at the chip timing station beginning an hour before race start. ALL TIMING CHIPS SHOULD BE RETURNED AFTER YOU CROSS THE FINISH LINE. A $30.00 fee will be charged to the participant if the timing chip is not returned. Awards are based on chip times.
