Mission Viejo Triathlon

Sunday, April 27th 2025

Some notes for the triathlon this Saturday at Lake Mission Viejo -

1. You must pick up your race packet on Saturday unless you've paid extra for race day packet pick up. You can pick up your packet between 12:00 and 4:00 on Saturday. Please refer to your email from the race for more info on that.

2. If you'd like to set up your transition on Saturday you are encouraged to. If you're using a club bike that I'm bringing, let me know and I will bring it Saturday. I plan to be there during packet pickup times on Saturday as well in case you need anything. Saturday will be a great opportunity to walk through race details and make sure you're ready for race day. I will be there and happy to work through all of that with you while there is no pressure.

3. I will also have race number belts in case you want to use one. They are a much better way of wearing your race number bib rather than safety pinning it on.

4. I will be to the race site by 6:30 am on Sunday. You should be as well. I will have the canopy set up and you can come see me there anytime. You are also welcome to leave any items there. I can't guarantee their safety as I won't stay there, but items there are generally safe.

5. Make sure you bring food and water on race day. You should have a bike style water bottle full of water to have on the bike. If you need a bottle, I will have plenty. I also like to have a disposable water bottle to sip as I head to the swim start. As far as food goes, I like to have something like a PowerBar or Kind Bar about an hour before the race. It's also a good idea eat some breakfast at home before you leave. Eat something you've eaten many times before.
