Get ready for the First Annual ALFA Kids Triathlon on Saturday, June 20, 2026, at the Meadville Area Recreation Complex! Designed for ages 6–13, this fun, beginner-friendly event gives kids the chance to swim, bike, and run in a safe and supportive environment. Whether your child is trying a triathlon for the very first time or already loves being active, the ALFA Kids Tri is all about building confidence, encouraging healthy lifestyles, and celebrating every young athlete as they cross the finish line. Every participant will receive a race t-shirt, finisher medal, and the unforgettable experience of being part of Meadville’s newest youth sporting tradition!
The race will be split into two age groups (6-9 years old and 10-13 years old) with separate distances. The older group will go first. Register your child based on his/her age at the time of the race.
Ages 6–9: 50-yard swim, 2-mile bike, ½-mile run
Ages 10–13: 100-yard swim, 3-mile bike, 1-mile run

About This Sport
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
Three sports, one race — swim, bike, run in sequence, with transitions that are a discipline of their own.
Open water, open roads, and competition with yourself. Cross the finish line knowing what it took to get there.
Swim, bike, run — back to back. The sprint distance makes it far more accessible than most people think.
