Part 1 of the Folsom International Triathlons, each person that completes both the Folsom International in June and the Folsom International in August will receive a double medal in August and special prizes for finishing both races in 2013. We look forward to your participation!
Perfect venue for a triathlon, with clean mountain fresh water and the party occurring in the beautiful Nimbus Flat State Park
The Folsom Internatonal Triathlon Part 1 fills a void for the lack of Olympic distance Triathlons in the Folsom / Sacramento area. This event will attract racers from all over the State, but has become a staple in the Sacramento Area. Participants will range from the world's top elite triathletes to hundreds of age group and beginner triathletes each year. Athletes line up to attack one of the fastest International/Olympic Distance Triathlons in the USA.

There is one water station provided on the bike course at mile approx mile 12.5. The bike course is fast with small rolling hills.
***Change of course: The canal trail will no longer be used for Folsom International and Sprint Triathlons in June. We will now use Sunrise Gold Circle, Mercantile and Folsom Blvd to keep the course safe for all athletes during the race. Please review the turn by turn and new map above.
-Roads will not be closed but escorting of all traffic on White Rock and Grantline will occur. There will be a lane closure on Folsom Blvd, Iron Point, Prairie City, Sunrise Blvd and Hazel.
Drafting: Drafting is illegal at the Folsom International Triathlon. We ask your help in doing the best we can to help enforce the "NO DRAFTING" rules of USA Triathlon. You, the athlete, are the simplest and best way to keep the bike course safe and draft free. We will have USA Triathlon Officials out on the bike course, but you personally need to help the sport and yourself by simply backing out of packs, slowing down or verbally mentioning to other athletes not to draft.

Aid stations will be placed every mile along the run course for hydration with cytomax sports drink, water, and clif shots/bloks.
This race will be timed using a chip timing system. Upon checking in you will receive a chip that is traditionally worn on the ankle. It is the athlete's responsibility to wear the chip during the entire race. If you do not wear the chip you will NOT be timed.
The Athlete is also 100% totally responsible for the return of the chip. Our waiver will have a disclaimer that must be signed that states you, the athlete, must return the chip or be billed accordingly by our timing company. It is the racer's responsibility to make sure that if you cannot attend the race, the chip will be returned within 7 days to USA Productions at the following address. If the timing chip is not returned the participant will be charged $30.
USAT provides comprehensive insurance coverage to sanctioned events. The coverage provides liability coverage to protect the race director, sponsors, volunteers, officials, and participants. The athlete excess medical coverage protects each participant for the day of the event.
Athlete Excess Medical: When athletes purchase a USAT annual license or one day permit, a portion of those fees cover the cost to provide them with excess medical insurance. This coverage only extends to their participation in an USA Triathlon sanctioned event and is only available after the injured party has filed with any primary insurance policies.
Event Liability: USAT provides comprehensive liability insurance coverage to sanctioned events. The USA Triathlon policy automatically covers USA Triathlon race directors, sponsors, volunteers, officials, and participants while participating in sanctioned events. Single-event permit can only be purchased through the race director and is $12 at packet pickup or the day of the event. USA Triathlon does not sell single-day permits.
