the course is intended to be from the Gulf-side of Navarre beach, in through Pensacola Pass, and to Juana's Pagodas on the inside. A sort of Half 'Round the Island - about 50 miles. It will be a Worrell-style beach start. I am not on the race committee or anything, so the details may be a little different when you get here - I'll do my best to keep posting info about all three of the distances races that make up the Emerald Coast Trident as it becomes available. There will be an official NOR in the next week or so.
Hope that helps - feel free to drop me a note if you have other questions. Hope to see you there.
ps - for those who don't want to tackle the Half 'Round, there will be triangle courses on the inside both Saturday and Sunday - this will be the usual Subway Sandwiches-sponsored White or Wheat Regatta. I'm glad, too - 50 miles on a 4.3 takes a loooong time!
