General Information
Registration fees included or disclosed up front?: Not specified whether registration/convenience fees are added. Course Info: Swim Course: The swim course will be in Lake Royer and will be a 750 meter course. The Sprint race will be one lap. The Olympic race will be 2 laps. After lap one the Olympic participants will exit the lake, run across a small beach (wave to your fans), run down the pier and jump back in for lap 2. The Open Division will be the first Olympic wave into the water followed by separate waves every few minutes. Waves will be identified by swim cap color.
Bike Course: The bike course leaves Fort Ritchie and navigates through hills and valley on wide shoulders and low traffic country roads. The first section starts with a steep climb leading to a fast and long down hill section. At the bottom, the Olympic distance will turn and navigate through the valley. The Sprint will u-turn and head back to Fort Ritchie. After the valley section the Olympic course will also u-turn and head back to Fort Ritchie. The final section for both courses is a long gradual up hill. BIKE COURSE IS NOT CLOSED TO VEHICLE TRAFFIC. You must use caution and make your own judgement call when turning at each intersection. Volunteers are at the turns to ensure you know where to turn but will not be controlling traffic.
Run Course: The run course is a 5K loop which navigates through Fort Ritchie property. Being on private property, vehicular traffic will be minimal if at all. The course has rolling hills. The Sprint course is one loop. The Olympic course will be 2 laps so wave to your fans after lap one.

Map location is based off of a geocode of the addressed entered using Google's Google Maps API. If your address does not geocode properly, you can either update the address (we will attempt to re-geocode after any updates to your entry) or you can use Google's geocoding tool found here: http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/geocoder/singlegeocode.html to obtain a lat/long for your location and enter that. To use the utility, type in an address that is close to your location and then drag-and-drop the marker to obtain the desired lat/long. If you choose to enter a lat/long, you must check the box on the edit page that says, "override geocode with entered lat/long."
