After arrival at the correct gate, you’ll make your way to the COVID screening point. You will be asked the following questions:

  • In the last 14 days have you travelled from overseas or a COVID-19 Hotspot?
  • Have you been in close contact with a person who is positive with COVID-19?
  • Are you an active COVID-19 case?
  • Are you currently, or have you recently experienced cough, fever, sore throat, fatigue or shortness of breath?

Important – if you are unwell, do not attend. We maintain the right of refusal to the event for any person suspected of being a COVID-19 case. 

After passing through the screening point, you will get your bib and enter the marshaling area.

COVID-safe Processes

All attendees are reminded to follow good hygiene and follow physical distancing – there will be red signs throughout the area.  If a marshal advises you to keep your distance from fellow participants or in a queue, follow their instructions please.

We also would like to remind all participants to avoid physical contact with others – please do not hug, high five, etc.


Start Times

Event Bib

Timing

The timing chip is built into your event bib for the Free Walk, Run and Ride as well as the Duathlon. The timing chip for the Cycle Sprint will be built into the Seatpost Sticker.

  • You must wear your event bib at the front at all times during the event.
  • You must cross the mats at all timing locations to receive an official time.

Do not walk over timing mats prior to your race, as this will set off your time.

Photos

Your bib not only provides you with timing, but also includes a digital barcode that can be  used  to access  your personal  photos from the day for free. A photography link will be available on our website on event day for you to explore your happy snaps.

All photos and results will be searchable via your bib number – so make sure not to lose your bib! 

How to Wear Your Bib

It’s important to wear your bib correctly on your chest to receive a result and so the barcode can be read by the photographers.
