- When and where is packet pickup?
- Packet pickup typically occurs at the Auckland Showgrounds on the day before the race and early on race morning. You must bring a photo ID and your digital ticket.
- Is there parking available at the Auckland Showgrounds?
- Yes, there is on-site paid parking available, but it fills up fast on race days. We recommend using rideshare services or arriving at least 90 minutes before your heat.
- What is the floor surface like at this venue?
- The Showgrounds typically feature a mix of polished concrete and thin industrial carpet in the workout zones. High-traction fitness shoes are recommended for the sled push/pull.
- Are there hydration stations on the course?
- Yes, there is a central hydration station accessible every time you enter the 'Roxzone' between exercise stations and during your running laps.
- Can I bring my own food and supplements?
- Yes, athletes can bring their own nutrition. We recommend pre-mixing your electrolyte drinks as there are limited facilities for preparation inside the athlete lounge.
- Is there a bag drop service?
- Yes, a secure bag drop is provided for all competitors near the athlete check-in area. It is free for athletes, but keep it compact.
