If I am not able to run the race once I register, may I request a refund of my entry fee?
Entry fees are non-refundable and entries are non-transferable. CAF will grant a refund of a deposit only in the case of a medical situation documented by a medical professional. Entries can be carried over to 2012 in select cases, at CAF's discretion.
Is the San Diego Triathlon Challenge a Hawaii Ironman qualifier?
No. This event is not USAT sanctioned, nor is it a qualifier for the Hawaii Ironman. The top fundraiser for SDTC 2011 will be awarded a slot to the 2012 Ironman Triathlon World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.
What is the average temperature in San Diego at the beginning of October?
You can count on ideal racing weather in late October. Expect the starting line temperature to hover around 50 degrees (water temperature about 60 degrees), with temperatures in the low to mid-60s three hours into the race. Temperatures should peak in the mid-60s by the afternoon.
What hotels are available near the Start Line, the Finish Line, and the Expo?
Check out the Travel & Hotels page for complete hotel information.
What is the elevation of the course?
This is a hilly and challenging course. See The Course page.
How do I know that I'm registered?
All entries received will be confirmed by email. Final information packets will be sent via email approximately one month prior to the event. You can also confirm your registration by emailing Jennifer Rose at jennifer@challengedathletes.org.
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. However, all routes in the course are open and all traffic laws must be obeyed. We also strongly encourage handcycles and racing chairs be well marked. Due to course difficulty, CAF also reserves the right to require a certain level of athletic experience before allowing a challenged athlete to participate in the event.
Is there a Relay Division?
Yes. You can register an entire relay team for the San Diego Triathlon Challenge. You'll need a swimmer, biker and runner.
What will I receive with my entry into San Diego Triathlon Challenge?
All participants will receive one of the best goodie bags in triathlon, with a San Diego Triathlon Challenge t-shirt, along with athletic shoes, towel, duffle bag, finisher's medal and more!
