SWIM - 300 meters
This is a pool swim at the Peter S. Brunstetter Aquatics Center of Tanglewood Park. Each participant will be assigned a swim start time based on your estimated 100-meter swim time. It highly recommended that you submit an accurate swim time in order to limit congestion and crowding in the pool.

Not sure about your time? Jump in the pool and swim 100 meters and see what happens (by the way, most local pools are actually 100 yards, just add 10% to your time to convert to 100 meters). We will stagger the start times by 15 or 30 seconds depending on your swim speed to ensure plenty of room for everyone.

The below averages and times provide some guidance as to how to project how fast or slow you would swim 100 meters.  These times are derived from the 2009 36 North Triathlon and are provided based on 100 meters.

Minutes & Seconds Per 100 Meters:
Average Swimmer: 2:08
Median Swimmer: 2:03
Fastest Swimmer: 1:10
Slowest Swimmer: 5:09
Top 10%: 1:34
25th Percentile: 1:46
75th Percentile: 2:19

BIKE - 20 K (12.4 miles)
New Bike course for 2010!  The bike course has been changed to a one-loop format, and you will no longer have cycle on the left side of the road inside the park.  Many thanks to Tanglewood Park and the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Dept. for helping us to make these changes. All roads are open to vehicular traffic but there is usually very little and law enforcement will ensure safety at all intersections.

The final stretch is a single loop mix of pavement and gravel trail within the park. Aid stations will be available every mile.
