No. This event is not USAT sanctioned, nor is it a qualifier for the Hawaii Ironman. The two top fundraisers for SDTC 2007 will be awarded a slot to the Ironman Triathlon World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.

Is the triathlon challenged athlete friendly?
Of course! We encourage challenged athlete participation! It should be noted that handcycle and wheelchair athletes use a different run course than able-bodies athletes, due to safety concerns. In this respect, CAF also reserves the right to require a certain level of athletic experience before allowing a challenged athlete to participate in the event.
