Introduction:
The Morro Bay Triathlon has an Olympic and sprint distance triathlons with a kayak
alternative to the swim section. The event takes place in Morro Bay, HWY 1, and on
county roads on Sunday June 5th from 9:00am to 3:00pm. The majority of our set up
will take place Saturday, beginning at 6:00am. These tasks will be separated into
different categories each with their own volunteers. These include
Swim Course
Kayak Course
Bike Course
Run Course
Transition Area
Finish Line
Communications
 Festival Area
Operations
Registration
Timing
Medical
ACCOUNTABILITY OF PARTICIPANTS
Accountability of all participants (that is, a tracking system) at key times and locations
is one of the most important aspects of a safety plan. Accountability will be
accomplished by:

Computerized timing system
Each triathlete will wear a computerized timing chip which will be scanned 6 times
during the triathlon:
At start of swim (starting line)
At end of swim
At start of bicycle course
At end of bicycle course
At start of run
At end of run (finish line)

The “transition accountability officer” will know which participant (by bib number and
name) has not returned for each leg of the triathlon by referring to the computerized
timing system.

Event personnel following the last individual in each leg of the transition.
Accountability and safety will be addressed in detail for each individual event leg of
the triathlon (swim, bicycle, and run).

THE SWIM
The Swim is a 1.5K and 750M out and back course that starts and finishes at Mother’s
beach. We will be doing a water start to reduce the number of foot injuries on
submerged rocks. Turns will be marked using the Cal Poly Triathlon Club buoys and
will be placed the morning of via boat. To ensure accurate distances, buoys will be set
using a GPS device with the locations pre-programmed. Morro Bay Harbor patrol is
responsible for monitoring and regulating boat traffic during the event.

Hypothermia
The water temperature on June 5 is expected to be in the low to mid 50’s, depending
on weather conditions during the spring. According to USAT regulations for this water
temperature and length of swim (1 mile), wetsuits are optional. Therefore, wetsuits
will be recommended to all participants, but not required.

Accountability
All swimmers will be required to wear a swim cap provided by the event. The color will
be neon blue for easy recognition.
Watercraft
Six one- person kayaks or paddle boards equipped with throw able personal flotation
device and emergency whistle.

One or two person rowboat and/or motorized boat; 1 or 2; equipped with 2 throw
able personal flotation devices and emergency whistle.

At least four of the watercraft volunteers will be USLA certified.

A swimmer can at any time call for assistance from watercraft volunteers to rest while
holding onto a stationary watercraft without any penalty. Triathletes will be
encouraged to seek assistance from watercraft without any penalty.

Watercraft will be evenly spaced along the swim course.

Once the last swimmer has passed a watercraft, that watercraft will move towards
the middle of the pack of swimmers.

At the start of the swim, one watercraft will stay immediately behind and follow the
last swimmer.
Swim Rescue
A swimmer in distress will be identified by watercraft personnel. Watercraft personnel
will sound their personal emergency whistle to attract the two closest watercraft, the
two watercraft and row (or motor) boat will move to assist the caller. Once the boat
meets the caller, the 2 other watercraft will return to their previous position.
Watercraft personnel will evaluate the condition of the distressed swimmer and
initiate appropriate aid from the boat and/or transport swimmer to Medical Officer at
Medical Headquarters.

Wave starts
Depending on the total number of participants there will be more than one wave
start. Each wave will consist of approximately 60 swimmers. This will prevent
swimmers from bumping into each other, and allow watercraft safety personnel to
see individual swimmers in a line, and not in a less individually identifiable clump of
splashing swimmers.

Design of swim course
Out and back to keep swimmers closer to shore.
Morro Bay is a relatively dangerous body of water in that it is affected by tides,
waves, wind and gets traffic from motorized watercraft. Morro Bay Harbor patrol is
responsible for controlling boat traffic during the event.
The swim course is well marked with large buoys
The swim exit is well marked and easily visible.
BIKE COURSE
Upon completion of the swim section, participants will head into the TA and
transition for the cycling section. Bike traffic would originate from Coleman Drive and
proceed as described below. The bike course will be marked using cones, removable
spray chalk and volunteers:

Start on Embarcadero heading towards downtown
Turn left on Beach St (a short but steep hill)
Turn left on Main St and under HWY 1
Head north on Main st bike path
Turn left onto HWY 1 at Yerba Buena St
Turn Left at Sea West road
Head South on HWY 1
Exit at North Ocean Ave
North Ocean Ave becomes South Ocean Ave
Merge onto HWY 1 South
Exit at the HWY 41 off ramp
Cross Atascadero road and enter the bike path
Merge onto Main St
Turn right on Beach st (Carful of the steep downhill)
Turn right on Embarcadero
Turn right into the Bike/Run TA
The sprint course will turn at the 13th street off ramp in Cayucos
In order to warn motorists of bicyclists on the road, CHP will be stationed along

HWY 1 and Yerba Buena St on ramp
13th street off ramp in Cayucos
Sea West road
North Ocean Ave
South Ocean Ave and HWY 1
HWY 1 South and HWY 41 off ramp

Orange cones will be placed at all turns and backed up with removable spray chalk.
After the last bicyclist goes through the course, the cones will then be removed.
There will be an Event Safety Marshal (the “sweep”) on a motorcycle following the
last bicyclist throughout the length of the bicycle course. This “sweep” ensures that
no one is left behind on the course and identifies the last bicyclist to the Course
Marshals and safety and support station personnel.

Bicyclists are required to stay to the right of all traffic cones and obey all traffic rules,
thereby allowing safe movement of vehicles.

To serve as a safety warning and inform motorists of the presence of bicyclists on the
road we will be placing EVENT IN PROGRESS signs at all intersections:
Bike Aid Station
There will be 1 bike Aid Station located at the Sea West road
Turnaround The aid station consists of two vehicles
Water
HEED (electrolyte drink)
Emergency carbohydrates.
Phone contact with Medical Headquarters
Transport to Medical Headquarters
RUN COURSE
The run course is a 6.2 and 3.1 mile out and back beach run that will be marked with
red arrows attached to wooden garden stakes, cones and course marshals at critical
intersections.
Head north out of the transition area on the Embarcadero dirt extension
Follow the course marking and cross the creek
Continue north on Embarcadero
Embarcadero becomes Atascadero Rd
Follow course markers and skirt Morro Bay High School to the west
Continue on boardwalk through Cloisters Community Park
Cross Azure St and head north on Sandalwood Ave
Left on Java St
Right on Beachcomber St
Left on Toro Ln
Follow the course marking at the end of Toro Lane until you get to the turnaround
point
Head south on the beach towards Morro Rock
Cross Embarcadero and head south to the finish
The Sprint turns left at Azure St and heads south on the beach.
Run Aid Stations
In accordance with USAT standards we will have an aid station every 1.5 miles.
Aid station one will be located at the Azure St parking lot
Aid Station two will be located on the beach at the turn around point just north of
North Point Natural Area.
Aid station three will be located on the beach just west of Azure St

The run course Aid Stations will provide:
Water
HEED (electrolyte drink)
Emergency carbohydrate
Radio or phone contact with Medical Headquarters
Transport to Medical Headquarters (by walking to parked cars at road turn off)

Aid stations and course markings will be set up morning of and removed immediately
following the event.
PREVENTION
Part of any safety plan should first be prevention.
 Education of the event participants:
Educating in rules of the road. Participants will be made aware of the open course on
the website, in the race rules and during the race briefing.
Warning signs of potential hazards on the course.
Event participants themselves act as course safety “marshals” reporting any injuries
of their fellow triathletes and course marshals.
Participants having prior knowledge of the bicycle course prevent surprises.
Participants can have knowledge of what to expect of the course:
     Course maps will be available on the event website and at the information
     booth.
      Encouraging participants to pre-ride the bicycle course during the weeks prior to
     the triathlon
     The course route will be clearly “marked,” and with Course
     Marshals at all intersections
     Participants choosing to drop out of the triathlon must check in
     to the nearest Support Station to allow for accountability.
     Educating other users. Two weeks prior to the triathlon,
     signage will be posted and maintained to inform the public of the upcoming
     event.
Signage will be posted on the:
        Morro Bay website
        Local bike shops
        Morro Bay restaurants and hotels
         Morro Bay Parks and Rec

Signage will include the following information:
    Date and time of the event
    Map highlighting the roads and trails utilized for the course
    Purpose of the triathlon
    Contact information (Event Director home phone number)
    Acknowledgement of permit by the City of Morro Bay, San Luis Obispo County,
    California State Parks and Cal Trans. Signage will be 8 ½ inch by 11 inches.
Helmets
USA triathlon sanctioning rules require all participants to wear
approved helmets during the entire bicycle portion. Helmets must be worn and
buckled before leaving the transition area at Coleman Park and kept on until reentry
into the transition area. Failure to wear approved helmet results in immediate
disqualification.

Safety Talk
A “safety talk” given by the Race Director is a routine procedure prior to all triathlons.
At this time all safety rules are reviewed, and any other special concerns are
repeated. All triathletes are required to be present and attentive during this
approximately 10 minute safety talk. Other special concerns reviewed at this time
include environmental issues, and special City, County and State regulations.
Self support
Most triathletes are self-supporting. USAT rules prohibit triathletes from accepting
support of any kind from other triathletes or spectators. Self reliance is always
practiced (except in emergency/injury situations).
Participants will be encouraged to carry with them:
Water bottles. Most triathletes carry at least 1 water bottle on their bicycle and/or
wear a hydration system on their back.
Carbohydrate. Most triathletes carry energy bars and gels. NOTE: Leaving any
equipment or materials on a bicycle course results in immediate disqualification from
the triathlon (USAT rule). That is, no water bottles, inner tubes, inflation devices, or
food wrappers can be left on the course. However, these items can accidentally fall
onto the course. The “sweep” will pick up any materials found along the way.
EMERGENCY MEDICAL SUPPORT
Trained emergency medical personnel will be placed at the
following locations:
At each of the Aid Stations
Finish Line
Medical Headquarters at Colman Park
The Aid Stations will provide:
     Assessment of injured
      Basic First Aid and Life Support
      Communication to Medical Headquarters for further
     instruction by Chief Medical Officer
      Activation of EMS through radio or cell phone contact
      Transport of injured to location determined by the Chief
     Medical Officer

The participating triathletes themselves will report to personnel at

registration and check in on

Saturday 11:00am to 5:00pm (Tognazzini’s Restaurant)
Sunday 6:00am to 7:30am (Coleman Park)

The Registration team will be the made up of four team members. Before the race
begins the team will be working on Check in/Registration. One will be working the
pre-registration table, one will be working at the day of registration and USAT license
table and one will act as an assistant and information person. After Registration is
complete two members will move to timing.
The majority of participants will pre-register however we will be holding Saturday
registration. Saturday Registration holds a few additional challenges but it is very
important that participant information be entered accurately. In order to do this we
will be dividing registration into two tables to help handle a rush more effectively.
One table will be designated a pre-registered table and the other will be Day of
Registration. Waivers, USAT licenses, registration forms and pens will be located on a
satellite table. Each table should have one person. The Day of Registration table will
also serve as the casher for USAT licenses.
If the participant is pre-registered check in will take place in the following six-step
process
Filling out the Waiver (On Satellite table)
Buying a USAT day license $10 (the majority of participants have pre-purchased a
USAT license, confirm using the registration spreadsheet)
Checking in with pre-registered table
Receiving race bib
Receiving a Timing chip (from SB Timing)
Receiving a race bag (including T-shirt)

If the participant is not pre-registered, registration will take place using the following
eight-step process.
Completing the registration form (On Satellite table)
Completing the waiver (On Satellite table)
Pay Casher $115 cash or check made out to ALL OUT EVENTS
Buying a USAT day license $10 (no fee if racer has an annual license)
Entering of participants information (Bib, Name, Age, Gender, Address, Email)
Receiving race bib (Enter the bib number in participants entry form)
Receiving timing chip (from SB Timing)
Receiving a race bag (including T-shirt)
The Registration area can become a very hectic place. It is the assistant’s job to help
direct participants to the proper locations and tables. There will also be signs directing
racers.

  • 18. ACCOUNTABILITY OF PARTICIPANTS Accountability of all participants (that is, a tracking system) at key times and locations is one of the most important aspects of a safety plan. Accountability will be accomplished by: Computerized timing system Each triathlete will wear a computerized timing chip which will be scanned 6 times during the triathlon: At start of swim (starting line) At end of swim At start of bicycle course At end of bicycle course At start of run At end of run (finish line) The “transition accountability officer” will know which participant (by bib number and name) has not returned for each leg of the triathlon by referring to the computerized timing system. Event personnel following the last individual in each leg of the transition. Accountability and safety will be addressed in detail for each individual event leg of the triathlon (swim, bicycle, and run).

  • 20. THE SWIM The Swim is a 1.5K and 750M out and back course that starts and finishes at Mother’s beach. We will be doing a water start to reduce the number of foot injuries on submerged rocks. Turns will be marked using the Cal Poly Triathlon Club buoys and will be placed the morning of via boat. To ensure accurate distances, buoys will be set using a GPS device with the locations pre-programmed. Morro Bay Harbor patrol is responsible for monitoring and regulating boat traffic during the event. Hypothermia The water temperature on June 5 is expected to be in the low to mid 50’s, depending on weather conditions during the spring. According to USAT regulations for this water temperature and length of swim (1 mile), wetsuits are optional. Therefore, wetsuits will be recommended to all participants, but not required. Accountability All swimmers will be required to wear a swim cap provided by the event. The color will be neon blue for easy recognition.
  • 21. Watercraft Six one- person kayaks or paddle boards equipped with throw able personal flotation device and emergency whistle. One or two person rowboat and/or motorized boat; 1 or 2; equipped with 2 throw able personal flotation devices and emergency whistle. At least four of the watercraft volunteers will be USLA certified. A swimmer can at any time call for assistance from watercraft volunteers to rest while holding onto a stationary watercraft without any penalty. Triathletes will be encouraged to seek assistance from watercraft without any penalty. Watercraft will be evenly spaced along the swim course. Once the last swimmer has passed a watercraft, that watercraft will move towards the middle of the pack of swimmers. At the start of the swim, one watercraft will stay immediately behind and follow the last swimmer.
  • 22. Swim Rescue A swimmer in distress will be identified by watercraft personnel. Watercraft personnel will sound their personal emergency whistle to attract the two closest watercraft, the two watercraft and row (or motor) boat will move to assist the caller. Once the boat meets the caller, the 2 other watercraft will return to their previous position. Watercraft personnel will evaluate the condition of the distressed swimmer and initiate appropriate aid from the boat and/or transport swimmer to Medical Officer at Medical Headquarters. Wave starts Depending on the total number of participants there will be more than one wave start. Each wave will consist of approximately 60 swimmers. This will prevent swimmers from bumping into each other, and allow watercraft safety personnel to see individual swimmers in a line, and not in a less individually identifiable clump of splashing swimmers. Design of swim course Out and back to keep swimmers closer to shore. Morro Bay is a relatively dangerous body of water in that it is affected by tides, waves, wind and gets traffic from motorized watercraft. Morro Bay Harbor patrol is responsible for controlling boat traffic during the event. The swim course is well marked with large buoys The swim exit is well marked and easily visible.
  • 23. BIKE COURSE Upon completion of the swim section, participants will head into the TA and transition for the cycling section. Bike traffic would originate from Coleman Drive and proceed as described below. The bike course will be marked using cones, removable spray chalk and volunteers: Start on Embarcadero heading towards downtown Turn left on Beach St (a short but steep hill) Turn left on Main St and under HWY 1 Head north on Main st bike path Turn left onto HWY 1 at Yerba Buena St Turn Left at Sea West road Head South on HWY 1 Exit at North Ocean Ave North Ocean Ave becomes South Ocean Ave Merge onto HWY 1 South Exit at the HWY 41 off ramp Cross Atascadero road and enter the bike path Merge onto Main St Turn right on Beach st (Carful of the steep downhill) Turn right on Embarcadero Turn right into the Bike/Run TA The sprint course will turn at the 13th street off ramp in Cayucos
  • 24. In order to warn motorists of bicyclists on the road, CHP will be stationed along HWY 1 and Yerba Buena St on ramp 13th street off ramp in Cayucos Sea West road North Ocean Ave South Ocean Ave and HWY 1 HWY 1 South and HWY 41 off ramp Orange cones will be placed at all turns and backed up with removable spray chalk. After the last bicyclist goes through the course, the cones will then be removed. There will be an Event Safety Marshal (the “sweep”) on a motorcycle following the last bicyclist throughout the length of the bicycle course. This “sweep” ensures that no one is left behind on the course and identifies the last bicyclist to the Course Marshals and safety and support station personnel. Bicyclists are required to stay to the right of all traffic cones and obey all traffic rules, thereby allowing safe movement of vehicles. To serve as a safety warning and inform motorists of the presence of bicyclists on the road we will be placing EVENT IN PROGRESS signs at all intersections:
  • 25. Bike Aid Station There will be 1 bike Aid Station located at the Sea West road Turnaround The aid station consists of two vehicles Water HEED (electrolyte drink) Emergency carbohydrates. Phone contact with Medical Headquarters Transport to Medical Headquarters
  • 26. RUN COURSE The run course is a 6.2 and 3.1 mile out and back beach run that will be marked with red arrows attached to wooden garden stakes, cones and course marshals at critical intersections.

  • 28. PREVENTION Part of any safety plan should first be prevention. Education of the event participants: Educating in rules of the road. Participants will be made aware of the open course on the website, in the race rules and during the race briefing. Warning signs of potential hazards on the course. Event participants themselves act as course safety “marshals” reporting any injuries of their fellow triathletes and course marshals. Participants having prior knowledge of the bicycle course prevent surprises. Participants can have knowledge of what to expect of the course: Course maps will be available on the event website and at the information booth. Encouraging participants to pre-ride the bicycle course during the weeks prior to the triathlon The course route will be clearly “marked,” and with Course Marshals at all intersections Participants choosing to drop out of the triathlon must check in to the nearest Support Station to allow for accountability. Educating other users. Two weeks prior to the triathlon, signage will be posted and maintained to inform the public of the upcoming event.
  • 29. Signage will be posted on the: Morro Bay website Local bike shops Morro Bay restaurants and hotels Morro Bay Parks and Rec Signage will include the following information: Date and time of the event Map highlighting the roads and trails utilized for the course Purpose of the triathlon Contact information (Event Director home phone number) Acknowledgement of permit by the City of Morro Bay, San Luis Obispo County, California State Parks and Cal Trans.

  • 30. Helmets USA triathlon sanctioning rules require all participants to wear approved helmets during the entire bicycle portion. Helmets must be worn and buckled before leaving the transition area at Coleman Park and kept on until reentry into the transition area. Failure to wear approved helmet results in immediate disqualification. Safety Talk A “safety talk” given by the Race Director is a routine procedure prior to all triathlons. At this time all safety rules are reviewed, and any other special concerns are repeated. All triathletes are required to be present and attentive during this approximately 10 minute safety talk. Other special concerns reviewed at this time include environmental issues, and special City, County and State regulations.
  • 31. Self support Most triathletes are self-supporting. USAT rules prohibit triathletes from accepting support of any kind from other triathletes or spectators. Self reliance is always practiced (except in emergency/injury situations). Participants will be encouraged to carry with them: Water bottles. Most triathletes carry at least 1 water bottle on their bicycle and/or wear a hydration system on their back. Carbohydrate. Most triathletes carry energy bars and gels. NOTE: Leaving any equipment or materials on a bicycle course results in immediate disqualification from the triathlon (USAT rule). That is, no water bottles, inner tubes, inflation devices, or food wrappers can be left on the course. However, these items can accidentally fall onto the course. The “sweep” will pick up any materials found along the way.

  • 43. The majority of participants will pre-register however we will be holding Saturday registration. Saturday Registration holds a few additional challenges but it is very important that participant information be entered accurately. In order to do this we will be dividing registration into two tables to help handle a rush more effectively. One table will be designated a pre-registered table and the other will be Day of Registration. Waivers, USAT licenses, registration forms and pens will be located on a satellite table. Each table should have one person. The Day of Registration table will also serve as the casher for USAT licenses.
