Each race packet will include the following:

STEPS TO THE PACKET PICK-UP PROCESS

  1. Determine Your Race Number
    You will be able to look up your race number on the computer near the entrance to registration.
  2. Pick Up Your Race #'s & Timing Chip
    Check the number signs above the registration tables. You are required to produce your photo ID and submit the completed Event Waiver forms (unless you did so at the time you completed the event online registration) to collect your registration packet. Relay Team Captains should collect the team race packet, wristbands and event shirts, but must submit signed Event Waivers for each team member. If you arrive at transition without your wristband and race #, you will not be allowed to race.
  3. Collect Your Event Shirt & Race Bag
    Show your race number and turn in your shirt tear tag to the volunteers to collect your event technical shirt and race bag.
  4. Proceed to Body Marking
  5. Attend a Course Talk
    Course Talks are optional but highly recommended for all participants of the Minocqua Triathlon and as a participant; it is your responsibility to be in the know.

10 Things to Make a Great Triathlon

To assure a safe and fun event for you & your fellow triathletes, please adhere to the following:

  1. Read the information on this web site in its entirety.
  2. Listen to the Course Talk carefully, and make sure to get answers to all your race-related questions.
  3. Arrive early! There will be long lines on race morning.
  4. Arrive at the transition area early!  If you get there late, you may be shut out & prevented from racing. Allow lots of time for parking, getting to the site and getting your bike into transition.
  5. Remember to bring along (2) water bottles already filled for the bike. There will be water stations on the bike course but arrive prepared. Bring water to drink on the way to the race & before the race.
  6. Take every opportunity to hydrate during the race. Do not rely on thirst to tell you when to drink. While biking, do not toss empty water bottles on the course. If you would like a second water bottle, you will need to add a second bottle-cage to your bike. Water bottles on the road are a safety hazard.
  7. If you get into trouble in the swim roll onto your back and raise an arm in the air. If you experience mechanical difficulties during the bike carefully pull over to the right so as not to endanger other athletes. Then pull your bike up to the shoulder and wait for a sag vehicle. Repairs should not be made on the course unless you are out of the bicycle lanes.
  8. Keep to the right at all times on the bike course unless in the immediate act of passing. Always pass on the Left and then move immediately back to the left lane once you are sure you have safely cleared the cyclist you were passing. Use your voice to call out to people that you are passing and look over your shoulder before making a passing move. NO WALKMAN’S, DISCMAN'S or IPODS ON THE BIKE OR RUN COURSE!!!
  9. After finishing be respectful of other athletes in the race. Please treat other athletes at least as well as you would like to be treated.
  10. Have fun, be organized and stay safe.
