From the Organizer
Join us for our 21st Annual HEAT Kid's Triathlon on Saturday August 8, 2026 at 7 am. There are two race divisions. Juniors: ages 6-10 and Seniors: ages 11-15. The 6-10 year olds will swim a 50 yard pool swim, bike 2 miles, and run 1 mile. The 11-15 years olds (Seniors) will swim a 100 yard pool swim, bike 4 miles, and run 2 miles.
*USAT (USA Triathlon) rules require that the age that is used is the age as of 12/31 of the race year. So, make sure you are clear if you have a 10 year old, for example that will be 11 before the end of the year that they are required to race in the Senior age troup.
USAT also has rules about the bike - no training wheels are allowed.
