MONUMENT SPRINT
TRIATHLON
1/3 mile Swim,
14.9 mile bike, 3.1 mile run -
Swim is in Monument Lake. Water temperature is anticipated to be anywhere
between 65 - 72 degrees -- so Wetsuits are optional per USAT rules; Bike course
two times around is a hilly looped course; Run is an out-and-back trail course
with some slight upgrades and downhills
In the event that drought
conditions might exit in July 2004 at Monument Lake, the location of the event
will be moved to the Woodmoor Country Club in Monument. The SWIM would take
place in the Country Club's Indoor AND Outdoor pools (sequentially for each
competitor ...) with a 5 second start wave between each swimmer. Start Order
and Start Time would be based on predicted Swim time. When registering online or by hardcopy entry form, PLEASE be
sure to include an accurate predicted time for a 500 yard swim so that slower
swimmers do not hold back faster swimmers. On the hardcopy entry form please
write the predicted swim time on the same line as your name. Example:
Name_______________ Predict Swim 500 Yds ________________ THANKS VERY
MUCH. While we don’t think that
this will be necessary – we do want to be prepared
