Does anyone know how far the finish line is from the water? I am just rehabing from hip surgery & can;t run/ walk far?
I have been in some Chi tris that made us run 1/2 mile to the bike transition !!!!
They are going to have some type of gear check.
Most people tend to just leave their bags or backpacks sitting on the concrete steps/bleachers behind the beach, though. There are always plenty of people around even when the swimmers are in the water and I've never heard of anyone getting ripped off. That said, it's probably best to leave your Rolex at home!
With 1,000 swimmers this year things are going to be a little crowded before the race starts. Make sure to get to the beach early. The check in lines will be long.
This will be my seventh time swimming Big Shoulders. Hopefully it's lucky seven!
