Folsom Lake T1 Logistics


Here are logistical suggestions for the two-transition (Rattlesnake Bar Park at Folsom Lake and Auburn Railhead Park) triathlon event.

Registration

You will be given two bags at registration - one for your wetsuit and T1 gear and one for your running shoes and T2 gear. Please label them with race number for easy identification. Consider using your own backpack/duffel bag at T1 to more easily identify your stuff at T2. Also label your wetsuit with name and phone number!

Race Day

Note: If you didn't register Saturday, late check in is at Rattlesnake Bar Park (swim venue) from 5:15-6:15am. If you are coming directly to the lake, realize that you will need your shoes at Railhead for the run!

    1. Set your bike-to-run transition area at Auburn Railhead Park. You can also set your transition area Saturday, leaving your shoes in your T2 bag, protected from the elements at your chosen spot.
    2. Get to Rattlesnake Bar, Folsom Lake via Auburn-Folsom Rd. This is an easy 7-mile bike ride from Railhead almost entirely descent. A great warmup for your body on race morning. Bring a backpack to transport your wetsuit and all T1 items safely.You may also get dropped off by support crew at road barricade 3/4 mile from swim venue. Athlete/Spectator parking at the lake is restricted - email for advance special permission
    3. Have a great race! All of your gear from the swim venue will be transported to Railhead and waiting for you at T2.
