RACE SEQUENCE
For this event the race sequence is swim/bike/run.
SWIM COURSE:
The swim leg will be held at the Opunake Pool. It is a 25 metre indoor heated pool. Participants should attempt to complete the swim without stopping or walking. Swim aids are not permitted for the swim (e.g; Fins/Snorkels/Pull buoys etc)
-
Short Course - Participants will swim two (2) x six (6) lengths of the pool (a total of 12 lengths). This means that after swimming six (6) lengths, participants exit the pool and return to the start lane to swim the remaining six (6) lengths.
-
Long Course - Participants will swim four (4) x six (6) lengths of the pool (a total of 24 lengths). This means that after swimming six (6) lengths, participants exit the pool and then swim another three (3) sets of six (6) lengths.
It is important that participants have trained for the swim. Once the swim is complete participants will exit the pool area via the side door and head out towards transition and tag their runner/walker (teams only) or proceed on to the run course until they have met the distance and cross the finish line to complete the event.
