  to registering for the swim.
• Only registered athletes are allowed in the transition area.
• If your wheel does not fit into the wheel slot of the rack, notify a transition area volunteer. They will
  determine a location at the perimeter of the transition area where it can lean against the perimeter
  security railing. You will need to remember where it is located if not in a pre-numbered slot.

  numbered transition bag. Your gear will be re-bagged into your transition bag after you leave on run.
• Do not place clothing, shoes towels, etc. beyond the front wheel of the bike. If items are beyond
  the front wheel of the bike, they will be moved by a transition area volunteer while you are on the
  swim course. In this event, they may not be in the order you would like them for a quick transition.
