Family Y Strong Kids Triathlon

A community event with a focus on children, the Family Y is offering a safe environment for a bit of friendly competition and a good deal of fun.

Children participating in the Strong Kids Triathlon will be grouped by age. The first race starts at 8:30a for children 10 and older who will participate in a 150-meter swim, 2.5-mile bike ride and 1-mile run.

For 6 to 9-year-olds, there's a 75-meter swim, 1.25-mile bike ride and 1/2-mile run that starts at 9:00 a.m. There's even a 100-meter dash for 3 to 6-year-olds, to give younger children an opportunity to demonstrate their athletic ability.

All participants will receive a T-shirt and medal. Tri-athletes will compete for age-group awards.
