Schedule

Specific times for race day will be provided closer to the event and based on registration quantities. For the Goal Getters, it is possible that check-in and transition (equipment set-up) may start as early as 7:15 am.
Please note that retrieving equipment from the transition will be prohibited until ALL three waves are complete. Additionally, parents and athletes may not cross the race course, except at designated points, to ensure a clear and safe path for all athletes during their race. Your understanding is much appreciated.
All parents and athletes are strongly encouraged to cheer for athletes in every wave. Nothing makes an athlete smile like cheers, signs, bells, etc. from the crowd!
