Water Station
Placed at intervals throughout the run course and 1 before the big hill on the bike course are water stations for the safety and comfort of the competitors. You will hand out water and encouragement to all competitors.
Time Required: 8-the last racer passes the water station.

Bike Course Monitor
You will be stationed at spots throughout the bike course making sure everyone has a safe and proper triathlon. Bike course monitors are responsible for directing and cheering on the cyclists, protecting them from traffic at intersections and alerting them to course changes and obstacles. King County Police Officers Guild will provide traffic control. Monitors must keep spectators off the bike course and remove any debris in the road near their assigned area. If a cyclist goes down, monitors are responsible for directing other cyclists away from the accident. Bike course patrol or medical assistance should be contacted immediately. It is helpful to have a cell phone on the course.

Finish Line
You will be removing the Champion Chip from the racer or giving them a bottle of Talking Rain Water with their Finisher's Medal at the Finish Line. This task is a great one for people with a child that can handle giving racers the bottle of water as the parent removes the Chip.
