6:45 am – Asheville Triathlon Race Starts (approximate time)
Swim Start Times and Overall and individual course maps are available on the iDaph Events website under COURSE MAP + DETAILS
INDIVIDUAL TIMING
This year individual participants will be using disposable timing chips to be worn around your ankle. These will be in your race packet. Should you lose your timing bracelet and require a new one, you will be charged an additional $10. Guard them with your life!
RELAY TEAM TIMING
If you are on a relay team you will receive one removable timing strap for your team and one bib number. This timing strap will be worn on your ankle and will be passed from each relay person for each leg of the triathlon. This exchange can only happen INSIDE the transition zone. Relay participants should keep their strap on until passing into the transition zone. It is a velcro strap. THE RELAY TEAM ANKLE STRAPS MUST BE RETURNED TO iDAPH EVENTS!! Relay timing chips not returned will cost the participant $10 each. The runner is the only one required to wear the bib number.
RACE NUMBER AND BODY MARKING
You will be issued a run number at packet pick-up this should be worn and visible during the run. You don’t have to wear your number for the swim or the bike portion of the event. You will be body marked on race morning near the covered pavilion.
The square number is your run number and must be displayed on the front of your body during the run segment of the race only. Safety pins will be available at packet pick-up if you don’t have a race number belt.
TRANSITION AREA
The Transition area for registered athletes, no family members are allowed.
There are no pre-numbered or pre-assigned bike racks, you will put your bike on a rack, first come first-serve basis. Eight bikes can fit on each rack.
SWIM START TIMES
Swim start lists are posted on our website and on our facebook page. All athletes will start by crossing a timing mat and running into the shallow end of the pool. Thus, there are no exact swim start times posted, you will line up in order according to the start list. You can anticipate approximately 6-8 starters per minute if you would like to anticipate your approximate start time.
NOTE: All athletes MUST start in the order assigned, failure to do so will result in a time penalty. If you are late and miss your swim start time, due to liability, you will not be allowed to participate. No refunds, no deferments or exchanges.
SWIM GUIDELINES
Bring your own swim cap!
Swimmers will cross a timing mat, then run into the shallow end of the pool, they will make an almost immediate LEFT down the first lane of the pool. You will flip turn or slide under the pool buoys/lane line to the next lane and go down the lane, flip or go under the lap lane at the other end of the pool and continue this pattern throughout the swim portion of the event. You will only GO ONE DIRECTION in a lane. The lanes are wide enough for passing, so please when swimming stay to the right in your lane unless you are passing. Pass on the LEFT side of the swimmer and then get back into the right side of the lane when you are done passing. Touch the wall at the end, then flip turn or slide under the lane line rope and then proceed to the next lane. Please look at our swim map (give link) for a visual on the directional flow in the pool.

PARKING
**All spectators and participants must park at the JBL Soccer Complex parking lots on Azalea road & must be at the parking lot by 6:15 am. **
Parking is located a short distance from the start of the race. All participants and spectators are required to wait until the last runner has finished to leave the Soccer parking lots, we expect this to be around 9:30 am.
In addition, no parking is allowed at the gravel parking lot by “The River” church on Hwy 81/Swannanoa River road this year. This parking lot produces a hazard for cyclists screaming down the last hill to the transition area.
SPECTATOR TIPS
Spectators must arrive at the event no later than 6 am and park at the Soccer Field Complex.
No participants will be allowed in this area past 6:15 am.
All spectators are required to wait until the last runner has finished to leave the Soccer parking lots, we expect this to be around 9am.
Spectators are NOT permitted to ride their bike around during the event to watch a participant race. This has been a safety hazard and concern at the race, please leave your bikes at home if you are coming to spectate.
Also, for the safety of our athletes, spectators will NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE BRIDGE.
