Mandatory pre-race meetings will be held at Inside Out Sports at two separate times during packet pickup on Saturday, September 13. Holding these meetings the day before the race rather than on race morning will allow us to provide more comprehensive race instructions and answer questions. Consequently, there will be no race instructions given at the swim start location on race morning. If you can’t attend one of these pre-race meetings, please make sure you read through the official Athlete Guide very carefully. The Athlete Guide will be available here on Wednesday, September 3.
