About
A scenic Olympic-distance triathlon in San Diego with a flat waterfront swim in Calm Bay, a bike ride through Point Loma, Rosecrans National Cemetery, and a national park, and a run through historic NTC/Liberty Station. Includes chip timing, a race-day tank top, finisher medal, and evening celebration.
Catering & aid stations
Aid stations on the bike course provide hydration. On the run course there will be aid stations at approximately mile 0.0, mile 1.5, during lap one, and at mile 4.6 on lap two; these stations will provide water only. Plenty of nutrition will be available at the finish line.
Pacers
Pacemakers will be present on the Olympic course with target times displayed at each start wave on race day (Renntag). Pacers help runners maintain even splits; flagging at aid stations indicates approximate passage times. This support is included in all paid entries.

FAQ
Can I pre-swim the course?
Yes you may swim at Spanish Landing Park West, however, there are no lifeguards on duty and anyone swimming does so at their own risk.
Can I wear a wetsuit during the swim?
Yes, the use of a wetsuit during the swim is both allowed and encouraged.
Can I use a snorkel during the swim? What about fins or paddles?
Because the use of a snorkel is actually a hindrance to swimming ability, the use of a snorkel is allowed during the race. However, because the use of fins or paddles would provide an advantage, both fins and paddles are not permitted during the race.
If I am allergic to Latex, can I wear your swim caps?
Nope, our swim caps are Latex caps. If you are allergic to Latex, please wear your own swim cap; it is okay if your cap color does not match the color of your assigned swim wave.
Is there an aid station on the bike course?
No. There is not an aid station on course for this length of ride. If you are in need of additional hydration or gels for the bike ride, you should plan to bring it with you. There will be plenty of nutrition at the finish line at the conclusion of the event.
How many laps are there on the bike course?
There are two laps for participants completing the Olympic distance and one lap for participants completing the Sprint distance.
Is there an aid station on the run course?
There will be aid stations at approximately mile 0.0, mile 1.5, mile on lap one, as well as mile 4.6 on lap two. These aid stations will provide water only.
How many laps are there on the run course?
There are two laps for participants completing the Olympic distance and one lap for participants completing the Sprint distance.
We’re doing a relay, how do the transitions work?
All members of your relay team will have a wristband, so you each will have access to the transition area. However, you will only have one timing chip for the whole team, which you will need to hand-off to each team member prior to their leg of the race. The handoff MUST take place at your spot at the transition rack. The swimmer will begin the race with the timing chip on, will complete the swim and run into the transition area. Once in transition, at the rack where the cyclist’s bike is hanging, he or she will remove the timing chip and give it to the cyclist. The cyclist will put the timing chip on, grab his or her bike, run out of transition, mount his or her bike and complete the bike course. Upon returning from the bike course, the cyclist will dismount, run his or her bike back to the transition rack, and rack his or her bike. Then he or she will remove the timing chip and give it to the runner. The runner will put the timing chip on and run out of transition to complete the run course. If you would like to finish as a team, the swimmer and cyclist may meet the runner at the Lap 2 / Finish split, just before the finishing chute, to run the final leg of the race together. Each one of you will receive a finisher’s medal.
Oh, no! I suddenly cannot attend the expo, can someone else pick-up my race packet?
Unfortunately, due to the USAT insurance requirements, only you may pick-up your race packet. We need to verify your ID, as well as have you personally sign an additional waiver for Koz Events If you cannot pick-up your packet on Friday, you must pay $10 for late packet pick-up on race morning. If you have not pre-paid for VIP packet pick-up with your registration, you must bring $10 (cash only) with you on race morning. If you arrive at packet pick-up on race morning without the fee in-hand or having pre-paid VIP, you will not be allowed to race.
My t-shirt does not fit the way I expected, can I exchange it for a different size?
If there are t-shirts remaining after all participants have picked-up their race materials, you may exchange your t-shirt. Please visit the registration tent on race day to exchange your t-shirt. And don’t forget to bring the t-shirt you want to exchange with you!
