*IMPORTANT - ALTHOUGH THIS IS AN ELIMINATION CONCEPT, YOU WILL NOT BE REMOVED FROM THE EVENT WHEN ELIMINATED, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE AFTER A FIXED TIME.
ThE SWIM:
The race starts with athletes diving into the sea from Mamula Island. They swim a challenging (and fast) 1.7km distance to the mainland, pushing their limits in open water to beat the Xekutioner.
TRANSITION 1:
At the exit of T1, 15% of the athletes are eliminated based on their finishing times. This ensures the race remains highly competitive. Any athletes outside the top 85% will be held back for 5 minutes and allowed to continue after “The Splitter”
