For relays one person will create the team as the team captain and the other one or two will join as relay team members. 

Completion, rather than competition, is the focus of the San Luis Obispo Triathlon. Each participant is encouraged to set and meet his or her own personal goal. This short course (or sprint) triathlon offers something for everyone, accommodating the novice participant while still challenging the experienced athlete.

The SLO Triathlon consists of a 1/2 mile pool swim, 15 mile bike ride on local roads (note: portions of the road will be open to local traffic) and a 3.1 mile run.

Start and finish will occur at Sinsheimer Park. Elapsed time only, no split times will be computed. Start times are staggered throughout the day, as this is a swimming pool triathlon. Results will be posted at www.slotriathlon.org the following day.

Event details and schedule

The first start time is at 6:30am and then every 10 minutes following until all racers have started. Only 40 swimmers in the pool at a time.
