Safety Rules:

Swimming:

  • Do not dive from the docks.
  • Wear goggles to protect your eyes.
  • Swim at your own pace. Use a resting stroke (sidestroke, backstroke) when you need a breather.
  • Swim to one of the boats on safety patrol if you need a break.
  • Call for help before you're too tired to help yourself.

Cycling:

  • Wear a helmet at all times. If you don't have one, we'll round one up for you.
  • Wear protective glasses.
  • Ride single file and stay as near the right shoulder as possible.
  • Pass other cyclists only when the traffic lane is clear.
  • This is a hilly course. Don't feel you have to conquer every hill. If a hill gets the best of you, get off the bike and walk.
  • There are many blind hills and curves in the neighborhood. Brake on the long downhills and the curves to stay as close to the right side of the road as possible. Be courteous to cars.

Running/Walking:

  • Stay on the left side of the road, facing oncoming traffic.
  • There are many blind hills and curves in the neighborhood. If necessary, step off the road as traffic approaches.
  • Pass other runners only when you have a clear view of the road ahead.
  • Walk when you need to. Some hills are steep, and may take a toll on your cardiovascular system on the way up and your knees on the way down.
