Parking & Transportation
The Olympic, Sprint and Duathlon courses are point-to-point race so a shuttle is required. Participants will use their own vehicles to transport their equipment to the bike and run transition areas on race morning. The transition areas will open at 6:00AM. Park anywhere in the vicinity of Sutherlin High School which is where the bike/run transition is located. Buses will transport racers and spectators to Cooper Creek Reservoir with the last bus for the Olympic Triathlon and Duathlon leaving the high school at 7:00AM. The last bus for the sprint triathlon will leave the high school at 8:00AM. The shuttle is FREE and also available to spectators. Spectators may return with any bus departing the reservoir. The last bus will depart the reservoir once all the racers are out on the bike course. You may provide your own shuttle but keep in mind that parking is VERY limited at Cooper Creek Reservoir.
5K and 10K run/walk participants will start and finish at Sutherlin City Park. There is ample street parking and no shuttle is required.
Course Support
Participants are required to carry their own nutrition and hydration supplies on the bike segment. There will be a couple of aid stations on the bike course for water bottle exchange. There will be aid stations on the run course with water, sports drinks and toilets at two mile intervals - as well as in the transition and finish areas. There is no support allowed on the bike course. Racers must be prepared to make their own repairs.
Spectators are kindly urged not to drive along the course as it creates a potentially serious safety issue and detracts from the athlete's enjoyment of the event. Please respect this request.
