  ¼ Mile Ocean Swim
  Swim waves start on the beach.
  Must cross over timing mats to be
  recorded prior to wave start.
   

• Tide charts indicate it will be high tide, if so and currents are good,
  we will use a straight out
  & back ¼ mile swim course.

• You will enter and exit the water over the 7th Street Dune off of Beach Ave. Swimmers will keep the buoys on their right shoulders at all times during the swim -- going out and returning.

• 
  DUNE RAMP EXIT - RETURN TO SCHOOL for bike transition:
   

• Once exiting the water you will run over the dune and proceed down the dune exit ramp, with a straight two block run on 7th St., crossing over Atlantic and Beach Ave. back to
  the school/bike transition.
  (Beach shoes may be left in a marked area near the dune exit ramp.) Volunteers will be stationed to assist. 
   

• Swimmers will be sharing the
  same run-in/return as the duathletes on their first run to bike transition.
  
  All will be clearly marked with large signage & volunteers.
