REGISTER NOW!

Hello interested triathlon participants!

Have you been considering racing, but still aren't sure?  Well, now's the time to register as time is running out!

This will be a very non-competitive race geared towards first-time triathletes, with a focus on getting people to try a race they've never done before.  We encourage you to give it a try even if you don't think you'll be very fast! (Stopping to rest during the swim is just fine!  Need a break as you climb the hill in the bike portion? No problem.  Try alternating walking and running during the 5k if you're not a strong runner.)   

Or if you'd like to try it by just doing one leg of the race (ex: you want to bike, but don't like running...), but haven't found a team yet, then let us know!!!  We can help you find other people interested in doing the event as a relay team.

THERE WILL BE PRIZES!!! (and, shhh, don't tell....but with this small first-time event, you have a good chance of winning something!)

OR bring your kids down for our Kid's Triathlon!  It's FREE (registration still required), and is a short sample of putting the three sports together.  Even if they don't know how to swim, the kids will have a choice of doing 25 yards (one length) across the pool, or jogging across the shallow end and back for the swim portion.  Then they'll do a short half mile bike ride around the parking lots of the Aquatic Center and Community Center, run to the football field and around the track to the finish line!  There will be goody bags for all Kid Triathletes!
