Overview

Our on-campus classic race will feature a pool swim, a fast and flat bike course, and a spectator friendly run course.

Swim (400 meters)
The swim will take place in a heated, olympic length pool. Competitors will be seeded by swim time, with a racer leaving every 5 seconds within each race category. Each triathlete will then perform the snake swim by winding up and down the eight lanes to finish the (400 meter) swim.

​*Flip turns will not be permitted and racers must touch the wall before then pushing off and under the lane line into the adjacent lane.

Warm-Up:
There will be pre-race warm-up swim time in the pool for anyone interested. The full pool will be open from 6am-7:10 am. We will clear the pool  at 7:10 am, and anyone remaining in the pool thereafter may be disqualified.
