NOTICE:
We are considering course changes that may result in moving the race from the west side of Haikou (where the race was staged last year) to the east side of town. The process is taking longer than expected (we had hoped to announce the course by August 1st.)

We recommend that you do not make hotel arrangements until the course is finalized. All entrants will be immediately advised about the course and the host hotel as soon as a final decision is made.

Please note that the race is 100% confirmed in Haikou. We have all the necessary approvals to use last year's race course. However, roads completed since last year’s race provide the opportunity to explore new and better course options, including a sheltered swim. We are taking full advantage of this opportunity and expect to have an announcement shortly.
