Kid’s Sprint Triathlon and Splash & Dash

The Hill Family Center Y invites children ages 5 to 12 to break out their swimsuits, pump up their bike tires and lace up their sneakers, for the Y’s Kid’s Sprint Triathlon and Splash & Dash on Saturday, August 11 at 10 a.m. 

Children will have the opportunity to participate in either the Kid’s Sprint Triathlon, which includes swimming, biking and running or the Splash & Dash, which only includes swimming and running.  Both events are broken down into age appropriate distances for two age groups, 5 to 8 year olds and 8 to 12 year olds.

Participants must be able to pass a swim test by swimming freestyle for 25 yards, jumping into the deep end and treading water for one minute in order to register for the Triathlon or Splash & Dash. For more information and to register, please visit www.ymaryland.org.
