For athlete safety we ask that spectators NOT attempt to go to the following locations:
1. Westside Highway (no walking, no standing, no riding, no nothing)
2. RCN Bike Transition (NO ONE is allowed in transition except athletes)
3. Transition Bike Paths – respect the race marshals or your pal will end up in a bush – bad tri karma.
4. Finish Line Mix Zone – this is the first 40 yards after the finish. It’s for medical, athletes, and press. Meet your star in the designated Family Reunion Area. Hug your wet hunk after he has his medal. See the Finish Area Map.
