update your estimated 400M swim time by September 25th!
We need an accurate swim time based on a timed 400-meter swim to create the swim lineup. Time yourself (or ask a buddy to time you!) as you swim 400 meters giving it your best effort. 400 meters is 8 lengths of a 50-meter pool.
PACKET PICKUP
Each athlete must pick up her own race packet. Athletes must show photo ID at packet pickup. USA Triathlon annual members must show USA Triathlon Membership. At packet pickup, athletes receive: race numbers, swim cap, shirt, maps and other goodies.
DATE/TIME TBD
MOTHER-DAUGHTER & GIRLFRIENDS TEAMS
Form a MOTHER-DAUGHTER or GIRLFRIENDS team! The first member of a team to register creates and names the team; others can join it when they register. Each member of a team enters individually (no relays for this race!). All members of a team must compete in the same distance. They will compete against other teams racing the same distance. The fastest average overall time wins in the team category. Women who enter as a team and do not win the team category will remain eligible for Age Group and Athena awards.
MOTHER-DAUGHTER teams must have 2 participants.
GIRLFRIENDS teams must have 4 participants.
2 & 3-PERSON RELAYS are also considered teams.
