Little Bo-Peep is a Triathlon Ireland sanctioned event. Hence T.I rules apply. Competition rules can be found on their website.
Photo ID will be required at registration. Each athlete will get, their swim hat, race number, bike stickers, ’T’ Shirt, and timing chip. Individual athletes numbered 1-200, with Relay teams given letters i.e. A B C etc
Those not appearing on the Triathlon Ireland Database will be subject to a one day license fee of 15 Euro.
The Swim Hat provided must be worn and the race number cannot be amended or doctored in any way.
Bike Stickers – apply one to the cross bar and one to the right hand side of the helmet at 3:00 o’clock position.
One race number is supplied. This race number is to be worn on the back. If athletes are wearing a race belt, the number can be worn on the back for the duration of the cycle and then twisted to the front for the run.
For Relay Teams the swimmer will not be wearing a number, the cyclist wears their number on the back and the runner on the front. For Relay Teams where the same person is doing both the bike and the run then the two numbers back and front can be used.
There will be designated bike racks for athletes with race numbers 1 To 25 only. The rest of the bike racks are on a first come/first served basis. The transition area will open at 7.30am on the Sunday morning.
Cyclists and runners on relay teams will be body marked after the swim has started. There will be a separate bike area for Relay Teams.
A timing chip system will be in operation. This means that every athlete will have an electronic chip attached by velcro to their ankle. This will record their times as they cross the electronic mats. It is your own responsibility to ensure that you cross over the mats. No manual records will be kept so if you do not hear the electronic bleep as you cross the mats your time has not been recorded. This system is highly accurate and will record splits immediately. Relay teams will pass on the chip as a baton at transition. Detailed results and splits will be available at the prize giving.
NB: You must pass over the timing mat at transition when making your way to the waters edge for race start or you will not be registered in the race.
