FASTEST TRANSITION CONTEST! New for this year is the Fastest Transition Contest. This is a FREE event for all attendees that will take place within the Hanley Center Fieldhouse which is the location of the Multisport World DC expo floor. The event will begin at 12:30PM.
How it works: Athletes will begin at the Start line and run barefoot to their bike in the first transition (T1) where they will put on cycling OR running shoes and their helmet. They will then run to the "Mount" line, mount their bike and ride it for about 25 meters to the "Dismount" line. Once the "Dismount" line is reached, athletes will dismount, run with their bike to a second transition (T2) and rack their bike and change into running shoes. From there it will be a sprint to the finish! All athletes will be professionally timed by Amazing Race Timing.
What to bring: Bring your bike, cycling shoes, running shoes, socks and comfortable clothes. If you don't bring your own bike or helmet, complimentary bikes and helmets will be available to you courtesy of Bonzai Sports. If you don't bring your own cycling shoes you will need to bring a second pair of running shoes. ALL participants must change into a pair shoes at T1 and a different pair of shoes at T2.
No bike? No helmet? No problem! If you don't bring your own bike or helmet Bonzai Sports will make "loaner" bikes and helmets available for use in the competition.
How to sign up: The first wave will be sent off at 12:30PM and athletes may sign up for a time slot in the Fastest Transition Contest at the Amazing Race Timing booth on the expo floor from 10:00AM-12:15PM. After 12:15PM, registrations will be processed from the Fastest Transition registration table at the event start.
Race format and prizes: Athletes will be sent off 2 at at time providing people an opportunity to race against friends, teammates and rivals! The "open" part of the competition will be from 12:30PM to 2:45PM. The 4 fastest males and 4 fastest females during the "open" period will then compete head to head, "March Madness" style, starting at 3pm with #1 facing off against #4 and #2 racing against #3. The winners of these 2 heats will then go head to head in the Fastest Transition Contest Final. The top 2 males and top 2 females participating in the Fastest Transition Contest Final will be awarded prizes. NOTE: If the 4 fastest males and 4 fastest females from the "open" period are not present for the Fastest Transition Contest Final, event management will roll down the list of finishers from the "open" period to select the 4 fastest males and 4 fastest females still present at the event.
