Ontario Indoor Triathlon - Race # 1 - February 22
2025-02-22 09:00 - 11:30 (America/Toronto) | Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre, Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre, 875 Morningside Avenue, Ontario, M1C 0C7, Canada
Indoor Triathlon
Indoor triathlons are a great way to try the sport of triathlon in a safe, fun, welcoming way. The swim is in a pool, the bike portion is on a stationary bike and the run is on an indoor track. Indoor tris are also inexpensive – all you need to race is a swimsuit, goggles, t-shirt and running shoes.
The indoor race format is simple: swim as many laps as possible in 15 minutes, ride as many kilometres as possible in 15 minutes, and run as many laps around the track as possible in 15 minutes. The farther you go, the more points you score.
Participants have the option to choose their start time, subject to availability. Registration is open to anyone 12 years of age and up.

Series Standings
Once compiled, series standings will be posted here.

Registration
Join us by registering here! Triathlon Ontario members get a discount, but everyone is welcome!
Athletes can race on their own at 12, and as part of a relay at 10. Like most sports, that means the athlete’s age as of December 31. (So if you’re 11 but you’ll be 12 before December 31, you are good to race on your own.)

Parking & Directions
The Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre located at 875 Morningside Ave, Toronto, ON M1C 0C7, just south of the 401.
Parking is available on both sides of the building for free for 2 hours or $5 for all day. More info: tpasc.ca/facility/location

Check In
When entering the building head towards the south end, near the Tim Horton’s and front desk. There will be a check in table. You can then head down stairs to the change rooms and then on deck.
There will be plenty of water available but if you require food, snacks or other nutrition, please make your own arrangements.

Volunteer
If you would like to volunteer for a couple of hours we always need lap counters and cheering support crew and would love to have you.
Volunteers can register simply by sending an email to technical@triathlonontario.com.

Race Format
The race consists of a 15-minute lap swim, a 15-minute stationary bike, and a 15-minute track run.

Swim Format

The competition pool is on the lower floor. There will be a maximum of two swimmers per lane. Swim caps are not required for this event.
A lap counter will record the number of laps for the 15 minutes. Be sure to find your lane and assigned lap counter as soon as the previous wave exits, give them your score card, and be in the water to start the race on time.
On the start signal, swim as many lengths as you can, keeping to your side of the lane for safety.
At the finish signal, the lap counter will score you a half-lap if you made it halfway.
Once finished, quickly exit the water, get your completed score card, and head for the bike. We recommend wearing a swimsuit or trisuit for the whole thing so you don’t have to change. Athletes will have a 10-minute transition time to get out of the water, towel off, put on shoes and cycling/running clothing and move to the track. This is a very tight timeline.

Bike Format

Spin bikes are located next to the track.
Getting yourself on a spin bike and getting the proper set up is included in the 10-minute transition time from the pool. This is a tight timeline – you need to exit the pool fast and be ready to get on your bike, adjust, and be ready to start. The starter will start on time so please be quick and efficient.
Torso covering is required on the bike – sports bras / crop tops are allowed.
The spin bikes do have SPD clips so if you have that type of cycling shoe, you are more than welcome to use them.
Points will be awarded based on the distance traveled in 15 minutes. You may set the tension of the spin bike to whatever you feel most comfortable. The bikes do increase the distance based on the power generated, so be sure to balance the tension for the most efficient pedaling.
Once the timer says stop, please stop pedaling as best you can in a safe manner. Once time is up, a volunteer will record your distance traveled.
You will then have a 10-minute transition time to move to the other side of the run track.

Run Format

The run takes place on the indoor track. There will be a maximum of 18 people in a heat.
Torso covering is required on the run – sports bras / crop tops are allowed.
It is important that you are on time and ready when the previous wave is completed. As soon as a lap counter becomes available, find one to take your scorecard – but don’t hit the track yet! Stop and get to know your lap counter. Get their name and make sure they know yours. Point out anything bright or memorable you’re wearing. The idea is to ensure they see you come by on every lap.
The run starts in a bunch but will soon spread out. Please run on the inside lane and pass to the outside. Be aware of visually impaired runners who may be tethered to a guide.
Each time you pass the lap counters, make sure you get your lap counter’s attention and say your name. Lap counters are often trying valiantly to count several athletes at once and it’s not easy. Give them a wave and call them by name, then say yours – that’s how you make sure all their laps are counted. Lap counting errors are not correctable after the fact.
At the end of the run, you’ll get warnings with around two minutes to go. You’ll get half points if you complete half a lap, no now’s the time to check your pace so you score maximum points – ideally crossing the lap or half-lap points just before the clock runs out.

Relays
Your team captain registers your team name and chooses a wave for your team. Team members must register, choosing the team and “relay team member” on registration.
IMPORTANT: Only one member per team choose a swim time. EVEN MORE IMPORTANT: Make sure one team member does choose a swim time!
Relay team members are welcome to be on the pool deck and the track to cheer.
You can freely pick who will do swim, bike, and run. There’s no need to register a particular member for each. You can even be a team member for more than one team, providing you’re racing at different times.

Scoring
Swim – score 20 points per 50 metres, 10 points for 25m, half lengths at end time scored at the discretion of the lap counter.
Bike – score 50 points per km.
Run – score 25 points per lap, 13 points awarded for a half lap, at the discretion of the lap counter.
Ties – Ties in total points awarded to the athlete having the faster run, then if required the faster bike. Absolute ties (all 3 scores the same) scored as ties.

Categories
The categories for the event will be U19 (19 and under), 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50+, Relays.

Notes

Wave and lane assignments will be on the start list made available the Friday before race weekend.
Because wave and lane assignments will not be final until registration closes the Thursday before race day, we are unable to make wave or lane assignment changes.
Wave choice is not guaranteed. Please be early and prepared to switch waves. Do not attempt to make complex plans based on being in a particular wave. We cannot guarantee that athletes will be in the same wave or adjacent lanes.
Additional waves will be opened if existing waves are filled.
Please note that wave start times are actual gun times – please be on deck well in advance of your wave start time.
Race emails are sent using Mailchimp. Please ensure you are subscribed to emails from Triathlon Ontario.
