How the relays work in 5 & 10 hour format

For the 2 person relay, each person does a full triathlon, and then tags off to teammate. You have to alternate triathlons. In other words, one person cannot do two triathlons back-to-back. For a 3 person relay, each person does one segment in the triathlon. One person swims, and then tags off to biker, biker then tags off to runner. Each person MUST do a leg in each triathlon. You can mix it up, but all three members of the team must do a segment in every triathlon.

Demonstration Division

The Demonstration division is for teams that want to participate but don't want to tag off when required. Teams that break down can keep going by joining this division during the race as well so you don't have to call it quits. Not eligible for placement awards.
