I’m sign up to race and have been eagerly waiting to see the course. Looks like they released the swim and run course for the T100 in Vegas Run course looks to have about 1000ft of elevation gain, so not exactly a flat course. I’m assuming based on the area the bike course gunna be a lot of rolling hills with a good bit of elevation too. Gunna be a tough race.
-The bike course has been added
It looks like you can find the “likely” bike and run course on ride with gps.
It shows the run as ~260’ per lap, 3 laps, about 800’ total.
The AG bike looks like a bit of a monster: 4 laps, 1000+’ per lap… https://ridewithgps.com/routes/47498328
I have a friend training for that now. Good on her. I’m not a fan of hills, particularly on the run. I picked my Ironman course specifically because it was the flattest course I could find.
Ooff… That’s gunna be a fun day. Haha
Damn that’s awesome. Now I’m even more bummed I won’t be able to make it.
I’m sure i know the answer to this, but is the swim expected to be non-wetsuit? I’d guess we’re looking at ~80ish even toward the end of October.
I’ve looked around to find average water temps of the lake and I’m fairly certain it’ll be a non-wetsuit swim.

Is it out at Lake Mead? Last time I was there about a month ago, it was like bath water. But I thought the race was supposed to be somewhere on the west side.

The bike course is officially up. It’s the course from ride gps.
can someone upload the ride gpx file? seems you need a subscription for ridewithgps
This is the (Pro) one I plotted (one lap). Climb is more (with RwGPS metric) than PTO share.
And here’s the AG lap (four of):

Thanks so much!
Noodt hit by a driver in a car and is out for Saturday.

Hope he can be fit enough to race in the final in Dubai (4 weeks).
In the standings he is #7 from 3 scores but might reasonably have hoped to move up a place or two with a good result here.
Of those on the wait list, Rider (who is not racing in Andalusia this weekend and is about fifth on the list) might be able to get there in good time. He was #3 in 70.3 Pescara four weeks ago.
Seth has a foot injury.
I was originally signed up with a sweet airbnb deal right on site that I canceled awhile back after T100 took so long to make any announcements. Good thing too as my wife ended up planning a sibling family reunion that it would have been a shame to cause her to miss for my race…
But, I do hope they return next year to this location as the hilly course looks fun!
Had no idea this was this weekend, ITU Grand Final also!
Hours of Triathlon to watch, excellent!
