PLEASE LOOK FORWARD TO THE 4TH ANNUAL KIDS TRIATHLON 2012, WHICH IS BEING BE PLANNED FOR SATURDAY, MAY 12, 2012.  MORE DETAILS WILL BE POSTED HERE AS THE EVENT IS PLANNED.

Special Notes:  Each parent must use his/her best judgment about the individual ability and readiness of his/her child to participate in this event.   We hope to make this an annual event, so if your child is not ready this year, play it safe and wait until next year's race to let them enter.  Kids must be at least 6 years old on the date of the event, able to ride safely without training wheels, and able to ride without constant adult supervision.  For the safety of all and to minimize congestion on the course, and to comply with USA Triathlon rules, PARENTS AND SPECTATORS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THE COURSE DURING THE EVENT.  We will have course monitors and volunteers stationed and patrolling around the course to keep the kids going in the right direction and be near in case a need arises.  

ALSO - Please keep in mind this event is primarily intended to be a friendly entry into the sport for kids, rather than an "all out" competition.   There are plenty of "competition" level kids events in the metroplex for experienced youth racers who seek it.  This is not intended to be one of them.  We want kids to have fun and safely complete this event.  Accordingly, we are not chip timing the kids, nor are we closing the course.
