Awards
Awards will be given during the podium ceremony to the first, second and third place finishers of their respective categories. Both Teammates in an eligible duo will receive an award in their respective category.
Rules for Duo Teams
e.g. if a coed team completes 6 laps, a MINIMUM of 2 of those laps must be completed by the female teammate.
*The only time a relay transition/hand-off can occur outside of the designated transition point is in the event a team member experiences a physical or mechanical impairment on-course. In that event, the other teammate must travel to the point on-course where the disabled teammate is located, make the relay transition/hand-off there and proceed to complete the disabled racer’s lap, starting from where the relay transition/hand-off occurs.
Teammates may not be replaced or substituted with another person once the race begins, no exceptions.
