How does an Indoor Triathlon Work?
Each participant signs up for an approximate start time during registration. We start 6 people every 15 minutes throughout the event. Please arrive at least 45 minutes before your start time to allow plenty of time to change and get organized.
The race is broken into three segments, totaling 60 minutes of racing: 10 minutes in the pool, 30 minutes on a spin bike, and 20 minutes on a treadmill. Transition times are fixed between events and do not count toward participants’ scores. Racers should bring their own towels for use during and after the race.
Racers are graded on a curve—the furthest distance in each category gets 100, the shortest gets 1, and the “score” for the race is the total number of points. All three events count equally towards the final score. (Racers will also see the raw data used to compute each score).
About JackRabbit:
JackRabbit has made a commitment to help bring people into the sports that we love. Our training programs are designed to provide a supportive, supervised environment. Our beginner programs are by far the most popular, with hundreds of people participating at a time. We've created a series of programs to help a sedentary person transform into a runner, cyclist, swimmer, or triathlete. All of our programs focus on coached group workouts so you can interact with other people who are making the same transformation.
