You can complete the courses at any time between 2/13 and 5/28. They do NOT have to be done all on the same day, but you may only count 1 swim per event, i.e. you can't take your fastest swim time and apply to all courses.  You must complete a unique swim per bike/run.  Complete the courses as many times as you'd like, and submit your fastest times.  Please note that all courses are OPEN TO TRAFFIC.  We do not make any representation about the quality of applicable roads and shoulders.  Riders and runners should use extreme caution, especially at intersections.  Please follow the rules of the road and be safe!
