From Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau:

IronKids Alpharetta is returning to Alpharetta on Sunday, September 18, 2016 at Wills Park and the Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau is giving away 25 free entries to young athletes.

Parents of young athletes ages 6 to 15 can enter to win a free registration to this year’s race here through July 31, 2016. Lucky winners will be contacted the week of August 4 with a promotion code. The free registration does not include the $10 one day USA Triathlon fee that is assessed to each participant if they are not an annual USAT member.

“The IronKids Triathlon is one of Alpharetta’s prestigious events that brings young athletes from around the U.S. to compete in the largest kids triathlons in the country,” said Janet Rodgers, president and CEO of the Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau. “I enjoy watching the energy and enthusiasm taking place on the morning of the event, how proud the parents are of their children and how excited the kids are to be a part of this event. We are thrilled to give away entries so children and their families can experience the race in Alpharetta.”

The IronKids event in Alpharetta has remained the largest youth triathlon in the country with over 1,300 athletes competing. The race will include three divisions: Junior- ages 6 to 8, Intermediate- ages 9 to 11 and Senior-ages 12 to 15. All participants will receive a commemorative medal upon crossing the finish line and the top three athletes within each age category will be awarded a placement trophy.
