Swim Course:
Swim Portion: A 250
meter "outdoor" swim will be conducted in the Virginia Run pool.
Race Start: The
start of the race will be staggered. One racer will be started every 10-15 seconds.
Racers will be seeded according to "estimated 250 meter swim time." There will
be two starting points (odd #'s at one end of the pool, even #'s at the other
end); each swimmer will complete two lengths of the pool in each of five lanes.
After swimming up and back in a single lane, the swimmer will duck under the
lane lines and swim in the next lane - up and back -- proceed for a total of
five lanes. Exit the pool.
After exiting the pool, carefully (please don’t run on pool deck) move toward gate exit, turn left and proceed up the hill to bike transition area.
Estimated
Swim Start Information: Each
participant will have "one" and only "one" opportunity to change their
estimated swim time. Changes to your estimated swim time must be
submitted to
Shandra Richardson by May 1, 2007. The race directors and
timing company will not have time to change everyone's estimated times
more than once. We suggest going to a local pool and timing yourself for
10 lengths of the pool (250 meters) at your race pace and using that as
your estimate. Therefore, no one will be allowed to change their swim
time after May 1, 2007.
