1500-1705 (that's 3:00pm-5:00pm for civilians) -- Race Clinic/Course Preview
The clinics will focus on this specific course and will go over the transition flow for each age division as well as the swim start. Participants will get some practice in the water and on the run course. We will not practice on the bike course as the roads will not be closed at that time. There is a $5/person fee to swim. MUST register by August 1st or 9th to attend.
