The Oceanside 70.3 course
The 1.2-mile swim is a single counterclockwise loop inside Oceanside Harbor, sheltered from ocean waves, with a rolling start. The 56-mile bike leaves the harbor and runs through Camp Pendleton, an active military base, and the site rates it hilly. The 13.1-mile run is two loops from the harbor along The Strand and coastal neighborhoods, finishing near the Oceanside Pier.
Race-day conditions
The official site lists an average water temperature of 61 °F (16 °C) and air temperatures from 45 °F to 69 °F.
What to train for
Train at sustained tempo effort on the bike and practice running off the bike in weekly bricks. Rehearse fueling and pacing at goal intensity so the half marathon is run, not survived. Include cold open-water swims and climbing on the bike, and practice the short climbs between beach and street level on the run.
