After a two-year break, we returned in ’07 to sunny Falmouth on Cape Cod...and year ’09 will be our 15th from Surf Drive Beach. Save for a few miles on the bike, from start to finish your race experience will take in some magnificent views of magical Martha's Vineyard. Only a 90-minute drive from Boston. Swim start field limit: 650 entrants. |

7:30am SHARP! at Surf Drive Beach on Surf Drive (on the Atlantic Ocean, just 1/2-mile from downtown) |

| VITAL PARKING NOTICE!! |
In the past, athletes have been permitted to park near the race venue along side streets. For the 2007 race, responding to neighborhood comments about the slamming of car doors and loud voices during the 5:00-7:00am pre-race period, we successfully engineered a plan where vehicles parked in Falmouth town lots located ½ to 1-mile away from the Surf Drive Beach venue. You will need to give yourself an extra 15 to 30 minutes prep time for these away-from-beach procedures. More detailed information will be included in your confirmation of entry packet. NOTE: our chances for obtaining future race permits will hinge DIRECTLY on our athletes’ adherence to our parking and noise abatement procedures. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP! |
