St. Albans Recreation Kid's Triathlon!  At our brand new Hardack Pool!
Online registration closed.  Participants can register on site at Hard'ack Pool on Sunday morning starting at 8:30am.

The Kid's Triathlon is a race that consists of three main events: Swimming, Cycling, & Running. (in that order) Kids start the race with the swimming event in the Hardack Pool. Then they'll run to the transition area, put on their bike helmets and shoes (and anything else they need). They will ride a bike course (TBA)  After the bike event, they'll head back to the transition area, and do the final leg of the triathlon- a run on the Hardack Trails (TBA) Although this is a competitive event, the focus is on fun, fun, fun! There will be 4 age groups and each will be divided by gender. This is an opportunity for kids to participate in an enjoyable life experience through athletics. The objective is to encourage self confidence, good health and community spirit through participation. 

Awards will be presented poolside after the final heat finishes.

Final details of the course are still being planned - and will be released once finalized!
