All pool swim races will use a seeding method to assign start times. When you register you will submit 100 meter swim time. The fastest swimmers will start first. Please use an accurate 100 METER swim time. This will insure proper seeding and a smooth swim process. The time you submit should be tghe 100 meter pace you can swim during the entire race distance. For example is the race is 400 meters and you finish in 8:00 minutes you would submit a 2:00 minute 100 meter pace. If you must revise your swim time you can do so by using the Contact form on this website. Include your name, race, new swim time. NO CHANGES WILL BE PROCESSED WITHIN 5 DAYS OF THE RACE.

- USAT’s “Age Up” Policy – An athlete’s age for any USAT sanctioned race will be his/her age as of Dec. 31, 2011. The age he/she is as of 12/31 will determine his/her racing age group. If an athlete is due to “age-up” into the next group, it will happen at the beginning of the year, not after the athlete’s birthday. This action aligns regular U.S. age group racing with the method used by USA Triathlon for its National Rankings Program and its new Grand Prix Series.
- Example: Julie Smith is 29 and will turn 30 on November 20, 2011. Julie will be considered 30 for all 2011 races – and will race in the 30-34 age group at all 2011 races.
- This same policy applies to the all race categories in Y Tri Race Series and all other USAT sanctioned events.
