Here are some questions we get asked. You might have the same one!

1) Do I need to wear a wetsuit?

We follow USAT guidelines. Wetsuits are required if the water is below 60.6 deg F and they are allowed up to 78 deg F water.

The lakes around here don't usually go outside of the "OK" temperature range. It's always your choice and what you feel most comfortable with.
All of the USAT rules can be found here: https://www.usatriathlon.org/multisport/rules

For Lake Stevens: The swim is a waist to chest level deep start, with expected water temperatures of 68-72.

2) I need to change from Triathlon to Aquabike or Olympic to Sprint - at the same race.

Up to 2 weeks prior to registration closing, you can change that on your own!

This is called an "event" transfer and can be done through runsignup. Here is a help page that walks through the steps:

3) When is the latest I need to let you know if I want to change my distance or discipline?!?

Before the start of the race. The best time would be no later than when you pick up your packet.

Note: If it's more than 2 weeks from the event, see #3 above!

4) Where can I park at the event?

See the link below to the Day of Race page, image towards the bottom.

5) Why do you guys put on these events?!?!

Well, when Deanna and Rory were (literally) moving on, we knew that we didn't want the events to go away. We want to provide these opportunities for others to race in these events!

We also knew we could. We have done just about every aspect of a tri. Competed in it, timed it, volunteered at it and put it on!
