It’s as easy as 1, 2, Tri! The Kids Triathlon is our newest and most heartwarming addition to the YMCA Race Series, giving children a fun, supportive, and beginner friendly way to swim, bike, and run their way to the finish.
This event is not about competition or intense training. It is about helping kids get outside, stay active, build confidence, and experience the joy of physical fitness in a positive environment. Children of all skill levels are welcome and encouraged to participate.
Due to limited parking capacity, we kindly ask that each family bring no more than one vehicle. Please plan accordingly and carpool whenever possible.

From Endurance Grid
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. Three sports in one race means three movements to train and race day never gets monotonous.
