Subject: RE: Has anyone done a relay triathlon? My husband and I did two relays last year. I did the swim and the bike, and he did the run. There usually aren't very many relay teams relative to individual athletes, but at each of our races there were at least 12 teams, I think. How it works--the swimmer gets out of the water and passes the timing chip to the biker, who does the bike and then passes the chip to the runner. There is usually a designated team transition area in a corner of the general transition area where the timing chip hand-off must happen. Good luck with your race! We had a lot of fun with our relays last year. |
