- Olympic distance athletes will continue to a turnaround point just before the highway by the mall.
Crystal Beach Section: Following the turnaround point, Olympic distance athletes will enter the residential Crystal Beach section for a challenging two-loop segment. Prepare for heart-pounding climbs and exhilarating descents that will put your skills to the test.
Transition: After completing the loops in Crystal Beach, athletes will exit onto London Bridge Road and head back to the state park south entry for transition.
Bike Entry/Exit: The entry/exit point into transition will be carpeted for approximately 300 feet over a gravel parking lot. Please note that riding on the carpet section is strictly prohibited for safety reasons.
Important Note: Athletes participating in the Olympic distance must complete two loops in the Crystal Beach section to avoid disqualification.
