Waves will be determined one week prior to the race. There will be ~5 waves with 3 minutes between each wave. The course is a counter-clockwise single out and back swim. Keep the buoys to your left. Exit at carpeted path and cross the street to the transition area…
Last Wave:
In 2011 we offered a "Last Wave" category for those swimmer that weren't comfortable swimming in an early wave and dealing with the anxiety of having someone faster swim over you from the wave behind you. This was very popular and we are offering it once again for 2012. Be sure to select "Last Wave" during registration. Please note, this will take you out of your age group category and you NOT be eligible for age group awards. We are not awarding any "Last Wave" awards.
