Swim Start
The Lake Country Triathlon will start with all Sprint distance athletes entering the water first, followed by the Half Iron and Olympic distance elite athletes, then the age group Half Iron athletes and finally Olympic age group distance athletes. We will use a rolling wave start with groups of 3 to 4 athletes entering the water at a time approximately every three seconds. Elite athletes will start with a gun shot in the water. All age group athletes and Sprint distance athletes should self seed based on their anticipated swim time with slower athletes towards the end of the pack.
