TriVenture Race

IT'S RACE WEEK!

We will be sending a detailed athlete guide shortly, but in the meantime here's a few things you need to know to prep for race week!

PRE-RACE PACKET PICKUP

If you want to pick up your shirt, bib and transition bag ahead of time, come by our pre-race packet pickup on FRIDAY, July 21 from 5-7 pm at Riverside Marina Paddle & Row, 1500 River Dr, Belmont, NC. You can take a look at the Start/Finish line and swim course while you're here!

PLEASE NOTE: ALL Athletes MUST pick up their Timing Chip at the Transition area on race day even if you picked up your packet early.

RACE DAY PACKET PICKUP & GEAR DROP:

ALL ATHLETES MUST REPORT TO THE TRANSITION AREA BETWEEN 5:30-6:45 AM ON RACE DAY. The Transition area is at the boat launch at 7308 Wilkinson Blvd (near the Citgo).

Race Day Packet Pickup:

Pick up your timing chip, bib, race shirt, and transition bag. If you already picked up your packets the night before, just show your bib to get your timing chip.

Gear Drop:

Transition Area and Gear Drop is at the boat ramp at 7308 Wilkinson Blvd. All athletes should report here between 5:30 and 6:45 AM to drop their kayaks, running gear and other equipment BEFORE heading to the race start line. (If you are using our kayaks/SUP/Float, they will already be there for you).

You will then DRIVE to the start line so leave enough time.

START LINE:

Start line is at 1500 River Dr, Belmont, NC. It is less than two miles from the transition area and gear drop. Please leave enough time to drive to the start line and park.

PRE-RACE MEETING

MANDATORY pre-race meeting will be held at the Start line at 7:00 AM. Be sure to leave enough time to drop your gear and check in at transition and drive/park at the Start line before 7:00 AM.

THE RACE:

- The race will be an in-water treading gun start. All athletes will enter the water when signaled and wait for the gun to start swimming.

- Swim 800 meters, then exit when you see the triangle buoy at the boat ramp. Grab your running shoes and head to the run course.

- When you finish your run, leave all of your running gear IN THE PROVIDED TRANSITION BAG and grab your kayak/SUP/float at head back down the river to the finish line!

- We will transport your running gear back to the finish line. All gear MUST BE IN THE PROVIDED TRANSITION BAG.

RELAY:

Relay swimmers should follow the instructions above. All Relay athletes should check in at packet pickup/transition before 6:45 AM. Swimmer will then report to the start line, runner and Kayak/SUP/Floater will report to transition BEFORE the race starts. (NOTE, roads will be closed starting at 7:30 AM, so transition team members who are not swimming must be at Transition prior to 7:30 AM.

Relay teams will share the same timing chip and bib. Hand off your timing chip and bib as soon as you exit the water, and then as soon as you exit the run course.
