I was just wondering if anybody has done the Chicago Triathlon International Distance and has any information about when certain age groups and genders start?  I saw they will post your wave start a week prior to the event, but I was curious now.  Is there a pattern from year to year?  I'm a 23 year old M.

I have no idea on how they decide the waves.  It seems like the flip flop them every year.  I'm M30 - 34 and have gone off as early as 7:05am (2nd Olympic Wave) and as late as 9:15 am. 

The best suggestion I can give is if you live near the loop or are staying in a hotel and have a late start is to drop your bike off in transition and then go back home and go back to sleep for a while.  I did that one of the years.  Dropped the bike off at 5am and went home till 8ish and came back.   Good luck.
