10 RELAY TEAMS The electronic timing chip on the velcro band is your baton; you must pass your electronic timing chip onto the next participant in your team between each leg in transition, where the bikes are racked. If you have any queries regarding this on the day, please ask a member of event crew who will offer support. Swimmer: Wear the electronic timing chip around one ankle over your wetsuit. At the racked bike you must place the electronic timing chip around the left ankle of the cyclist. Cyclist: Wear a cycle helmet and pinned number on your back. Wait by the racking position. Don t remove your bike from the rack until your swimmer has tagged you by placing the timing chip around your left ankle. On your return, the runner will remove the electronic timing chip from your ankle and place it on theirs. Runner: Pin your race number on the front of your shirt. Wait for your cyclist at the racking position to switch over your electronic timing chip. All relay team members have access to the transition area and can cross the finish line together by joining your runner at the end of the row of barriers on their final lap as they approach the finish line.

11 SAFETY Medical teams and ambulances will be on standby in case of accidents. If you see an incident, please report it to the nearest marshal who will alert the medical team.
