Each entrant 18 years or older must enter themselves, using their own unique email address. Participants under 18 must have a parent or guardian enter on their behalf.
Registration requires one team member to register as the team captain, and the other team member/s to then join the team.
Step One: Team Captain Registration. When registering as team captain, you will be required to create a team name and password. Once you have successfully entered as team captain, please inform your team mate/s of the team name and password.
Step Two: Team Member Registration. When the second member registers, they are required to register as a team member. As part of their registration process, they will be asked to join a team, and here they will need to search for your team by name, then enter the password.

Participants can transfer their race entry to someone else until 5pm, Thursday 12 March 2020 using the approved transfer process. No transfers will be accepted after this date.
It is not permitted to transfer your race entry to someone else other than through this process, including on Race Day.
It is very important for health and safety reasons for us to know the correct identity of every athlete on course, and accordingly it is strictly prohibited to race under another person’s race bib.
Any athletes caught doing this will be disqualified and may be prevented from entering future events.
The process for transferring your entry is as follows:
Participants can request to transfer their entry between different events until the event is sold out or online entries have closed. Once the event is sold out and entries have closed to that event, no transfers will be accepted.
A transfer fee of $25.00 will be charged for all transfers between events.
If you decide to upgrade your event to a longer distance event and space is available, you will need to pay the difference in entry fees.
If you decide to downgrade your event to a shorter distance event and space is available, unfortunately we are not able to refund the difference in entry fees.
If you would like to transfer between race distances, then please email us at motatapu@ironman.com
