Most races will provide safety pins for your BIB and swim cap in your race packet. However, I've been in races that didn't provide either, all depends on the race. I'd suggest emailing the race director and asking him/her.

One tip, if you can pick up a race belt.  Makes things much easier.  Good luck on your Tri!!!

Good Luck.

btw: If they offer you a "finishers" medal.  Say "thank you" and be proud of YOUR accomplishment.

I wish I had picked up a race belt before my first one last weekend. I ended up pinning my number to a different shirt and changing in the transition area.

Also don't forget to safety pin your chip strap. Someone is always gonna lose a chip.
