CHILD CARE IS AVAILABLE DURING YOUR RACE WAVE!

• Check-in will be 30 minutes before your wave start.
  
  
• First wave will begin at 8:00AM, with each successive wave beginning every 30 minutes.
  
  
• This is a super sprint triathlon. Segments will consist of a 400yd swim, 6.5mi cycle, and a 2mi run.
  
  
• Duathlon participants may choose to compete in the two legs of their preference upon registration.
  
  
• Swim and cycle segments will take place indoors in our pool and cycle studio, while the run segment will take place outside on the sidewalk between the YMCA building and Glen Ave.
  
  
• Transitions are not timed for this competition to allow for safe travel between the pool, cycle, and run areas. However, there is a time cap of 10 minutes between each leg in order to keep the waves together. Results will be a cumulative time of your three segments.
  
  
• Competitors will be mixed for competition, however, results will be separated by age group and gender. Duathlon results will be tallied separately from triathlon and will consist of one open category of all ages and genders for each duathlon combo (swim/bike, bike/run, etc.) The Y TRI welcomes competitors of all gender identities. Please compete in the gender category in which you are most comfortable.
  
  
• Prizes will be awarded to winners in each age group, the relay team division, and to individuals with the overall best times. There are no awards for the duathlon categories, however, the top finishers in each duathlon combo will be acknowledged.
  
  
• Y TRI participants must be 12 years of age or older to participate. All participants between the ages of 12 and 14 must take a deep water safety test before competing in the race. Please contact Meaghan Donnelly at mdonnelley@ridgewoodymca.org to schedule a deep water test.
  
  
• Stay and Play will be available for childcare while guardians are racing. Children must be dropped off and picked up no more than 30 minutes before/after their wave start/finish.
