What is a team?
A team of two or three individuals may complete the event by switching
off racers for the swim section of the race, the bike section of the race,
and the run section of the race.
The team process begins with the swim, a "tag-off" to the biker, followed
by a "tag-off" to the runner. The "tag-off" area will be designated near the
transition area. Two person teams are permitted (the fee is still the team
rate)
Where is the transition area:
The transition area will be near the Clock Tower and will offer a
place for belongings
Teams will "tag-off" in this area as well
The transition area is approximately 50 yards from the pool (sidewalks,
grassy) and the bike and the run start and end at the transition area
As "Tri the Rim" veterans will tell you...It is a rain or shine event (happily).
Are Ipods allowed:
Ipods, headphones, etc., are not permitted. Volunteers and other participants may need to communicate with you and you need to hear the traffic.
If you have specific questions contact Race Director: Dorian Owen (970-247-7220) or by E-mail at Owen2_D@fortlewis.edu
For the safety of participants and your pet...Dogs are NOT Permitted on the FLC Campus
