Details:
This fun neighbourhood triathlon encourages children to get out and move this summer. This race is designed to motivate kids to get outside with swimming, biking and running. So get practicing, then put your skills to the challenge and compete with a crowd to cheer you on along your way to the finish line.
Each child will race against time and finish like a star with a medal and a recovery snack just like the pros. There will NOT be any awards for top places. Enjoy the fun of family friendly sports and fitness or challenge yourself to compete against the clock and get a personal best time. If this is your first time in a triathlon then a personal best (PB) time is a GUARANTEE!!
The race will begin at Fairfields Swim Club and finish at Hillcrest Public School. Click here, 2021 Fairfields Triathlon Map.pdf, to see the map and distance chart for each age group. Parents MUST accompany the 3 and 4 year olds throughout the course. Parents of the 5 year old MUST be present in the pool alongside their child and may choose to accompany them in the bike and run portion. Personal floatation devices are a MUST for those who have not passed their Fairfields deep end test.
There will be course marshals and volunteers throughout the course to help the kids along the way. Your child will not get lost.
Registration fees cover the cost of the supplies.
