Transition Points and Protocol
Each team athlete must check-in with officials at the transition 15 minutes prior to their anticipated start-time. The team-member completing the previous leg must complete his or her course and be recorded by officials before tagging the next member, who is then free to depart.
There
will be full aid station supplies at each transition point.
These will include
water, sports drink, fruit, sweets, First Aid kit,
vaseline,
sunscreen (all of which are available to competitors
only), and either
public toilets or Port-a-loo. The transitions from the
first and
second swims to the first and second paddles will
also provide hot
drinks.Access to transition compounds is restricted to race officials, Solo Athletes' helpers (wearing helper's ID), media and team members involved in the changeover.
