This is a fantastic opportunity for your child to participate in an enjoyable, athletic event that promotes a healthy lifestyle, provides a chance to meet new friends and build self confidence. The courses and distances will be achievable for all athletes, promoting a philosophy of completion rather than competition. The focus of the event is not on finish lines, placing, or rankings; rather a sense of accomplishment. Each child will receive a medal for crossing the finish line.
The race will be broken down into 4 waves, with different heats per wave. Heats will be determined at registration close. Racers will be separated into their waves based on age.
This is where your child will arrange his/her equipment. It will be located in the YMCA Field, outside of the Main Entrance. This area is for participants only. No parents allowed! (Please see Race Packet for more details)
SWIM:
Our swim will be held in the lap swimming pool of the YMCA. There will be lifeguards on deck, as well as volunteers, to ensure safety and count laps. Athletes will begin their swim from INSIDE the pool. Athletes will exit the pool and head to Transition through hallway. (Please see Race Packet for more details)
BIKE:
All athletes will follow the bike course to the Senior High School where they will complete the appropriate number of laps, then return to Transition. 6-7 year-olds will turn around at the start of the Tiger Paw Path (In front of Longer Elementary).
RUN:
Once the racer has completed their bike, they will be instructed to put their bike back into Transition and head out for the run. The run course will take place around the Junior High School. Depending on their age, athletes will have to either complete the half mile loop around the Junior High or enter the track for 2 laps before completing the lap around the Junior High. After completing the appropriate number of laps, athletes will head to the finish, which will be adjacent to the Transition.
All finishers will receive a medal for completing the race. Award winners are asked to remain for the Awards Ceremony.
No awards will be mailed.
Sign up to be a volunteer for our Youth Triathlon and you will get to see your child in action.
