Here are some recent questions that we
have received that may be useful to others:
Q: Once the race fills
up can I be added to the waiting list?
A: There is no waiting list for the
Health First Triathlon. Waiting list
requests will not be replied to in the
future.
Q: Will wet suits be allowed?
A: The water temperature must be below
78 degrees
Fahrenheit to allow wet suits. The average water
temperature in the Indian River is usually higher than
that at this time of year. The water temperature
will be measured shortly before the race per USAT rules
to determine the official water temperature.
Q: If I am doing the
Sprint race why do I need to be out of
transition before 7am?
A: It is not safe to have people
setting up in transition while the Olympic
participants are racing and trying to
navigate the transition area.
Q: I registered for the race but
cannot race due to injury. Can I transfer my
registration to someone else or receive a refund?
A: No, registrations cannot be transferred nor are
there any refunds.
Q: How many swim waves will there
be?
A: That probably will not be
determined until race day.
Q: Where should I park
on race day?
A: A detailed map for parking will be
provided within 6 weeks of the race.
Q: Is there a host
hotel for the race?
A: Yes, the
Doubletree Guest Suites in Melbourne Beach
is the host hotel for this year's race.
The race rate is $99 per night but you must
make your reservations by 9/6/2010.
Q: If I wait until
race day to register will there still be
spaces available?
A: There is no guarantee that any
spaces will be available on race day.
Once the race reaches capacity it will be
closed and additional entries will not be
allowed.
Q: If the Sprint
Distance race fills up but the Olympic
Distance still has space will you allow
additional Sprint entries on race day?
A: There will be a cap on the number
of entries for the Sprint distance race in
2010. Once this cap is reached the
Sprint distance race will be closed and
spots for the Olympic distance race will not
be made available to the Sprint distance.
Q: I missed a turn on
the course and because of this I was
disqualified. I didn't see anything
that indicated where the turn was and I
don't think that I should have been
disqualified.
A: It is the racer's responsibility to
know the course. Volunteers on the run
and bike course can direct you if you have a
question but in all cases it is each
participant's responsibility to know the
course.
