WHY DOES THE TRANSITION AREA REMAIN CLOSED WHILE THE RACE IS ONGOING?
USA Triathlon Federation Rule 7.4 – Obstruction and Interference: “No participant shall impede the forward progress of another participant or interfere with another participant’s equipment while in the Transition Area”. The Local Race Director will use their best discretion on when the Transition area will be accessible to athletes to pick up their gear and leave Race site. The Transition area may be entered by athletes only.
