The further you go during a specific portion, the more points you earn toward a final score.</p> <p>The <b>60-minute</b> event consists of <b>45 minutes of exercise</b> &#43; 15 minutes of transition time as follows:</p> <ul><li><b>Swim: </b>10 minutes (in the pool) <ul><li>&#43; Transition #1 = 10-minutes</li></ul> </li><li><b>Bike: </b>20 minutes (on an indoor bike) <ul><li>&#43; Transition #2 = 5-minutes</li></ul> </li><li><b>Run: </b>15 minutes (on a treadmill or indoor track)</li></ul> <p> </p> <h5><b><span style="color:#ff0505">✶✶ </span>BEGINNER FRIENDLY! <span style="color:#ff0505">✶✶</span></b></h5> <p>Indoor triathlons are fun, beginner-friendly events for all ability levels!   Some of our indoor triathlons are even in relatively shallow depth pools (e.g. Lakeshore Sport &amp; Fitness) where you can &#34;aqua-jog&#34; the swim if you aren&#39;t comfortable swimming (NOTE: Edgewater location events feature a pool with a &#34;deep end&#34; on one end of the pool).  Any swim stroke is welcome, and since the events are time-based (not distance based), you can take breaks as needed anytime - swim 25 yards then take a breather if you need to!   The clock will keep running and you may not &#34;score&#34; as high in total distance, but these events are all about participation - so they are great fun no matter how fast or &#34;social&#34; you take it because everyone starts and finishes together regardless of fitness level!   So invite your friends, family, and anyone looking for a great 1-hour fitness challenge!</p> <p> </p> <h5><b><span style="color:#ff0505">✶✶</span> TRI312-SCORING SYSTEM <span style="color:#ff0505">✶✶</span></b></h5> <p>Based on the “312” Chicago area code, we leverage a unique “312 multiplier” scoring system with a 3x SWIM &#43; 1x BIKE &#43; 2x RUN = TOTAL SCORE formula.  With a set-time for each event, the results become distance-based using a weighted scoring formula that better replicates real-world outdoor triathlon results.  This creates a beginner-friendly and fun atmosphere where everyone starts and finishes together!  Ultimately, this also allows swimmers, cyclists, and runners to better complete on a level playing field and determine who is the best all around triathlete!</p> <p><b>YOUR TOTAL SCORE = </b><br />3x Swim Distance (miles) &#43; <br />1x Bike Distance (miles) &#43; <br />2x Run Distance (miles)</p> <h5><br /><b><span style="color:#ff0505">✶✶✶✶</span> BRING TRI312 TO YOU! <span style="color:#ff0505">✶✶✶✶</span></b></h5> <p>Want to bring Tri312 to your club or facility?
