Subject: RE: Not finishing the swim Mrschach - 2011-06-06 3:47 PM It is my understanding that in most situations, you can't continue on to the bike or run. I did SheRox Philly last year and they told us at the information meeting if you need to get out of the water and not finish the swim they would still let you do the bike and run but not be an official finisher. SheRox is geared towards first time triathletes and 6 weeks prior to that race someone drowned at the Philly tri. The organizers of SheRox knew a lot of first time OWSwimmers were a little nervous. Happened to me at a local tri a couple of years ago - someone took my name as i came in on the boat - and then I went on to do the bike and run (and had fun all the while beating myself up). The results showed up for a couple of days and then I was moved to the DQ list. Edited by juniperjen 2011-06-06 4:22 PM
