Where can I find photos of the race?
Click here to see Brightroom photos from the Nautica Malibu Triathlon Classic Race.
If the event is sold out, can I be put on a wait list?
No. Once the event is sold out, we will not be taking any other entries or have any wait lists.
Can I check in on Sunday?
Yes, but we strongly recommend that you pick up your packet on Saturday. Sunday there will be long lines and waits, and the race will not start late due to late check-ins.
Can I sign up the day of the event?
If the event has not sold out, the remaining spots will be sold on Saturday. However, we do expect the event to sell out as it has in past years, so we advise you to register early.
I can bike and run, but I’m nervous about the ocean swimming.
We will be holding an ocean swim clinic on Saturday, August 29, 2009 at 9am. Meet at Tower 9 at Zuma beach to get ocean swimming tips from Los Angeles County’s top lifeguards!
Do I need to wear a wetsuit?
Wetsuits are not required, but most people do choose to race in them. The water temperature is usually 67-70 degrees.
What is the mountain bike division?
The mountain bike division is for those people who are racing using a mountain bike instead of a road bike. The width of your tires must be 1.75 inches or larger. These tires can be smooth, knobby, or with tred.
Where do I view my photos from the 2008 race?

Do you offer refunds?
All entry fees are non-refundable and non-transferable to other athletes.
If an athlete/team is unable to attend an event he/she can complete an event deferment form by August 28, 2009. Once an athlete has completed the deferment form, they will automatically be removed from the 2009 database and cannot be added back into the database for any reason.
The deferment form will guarantee the athletes registration in the 2010 Nautica Malibu Triathlon ONLY if they register during the Deferral Entry Week in 2010. All deferred athletes will receive an email prior to registration opening in 2010 with specific instructions on how to register.
Deferred athletes must pay the 2010 early registration entry fee.
You WILL NOT receive a refund nor will your 2009 entry fee be transferred. There is no deferral fee.
Can I transfer my individual race entry to another person?
No, individual registrations MAY NOT be transferred from one person to another. Relay teams may switch members and should contact mesp@mesp.com to do so.
