There have already been two training sessions, and each one had over 20 participants, and different children showed up each time. This will not be a super-sized race, but it should have between 70 and 100 kids. Please come out an support the event.

Seriously, take the time and email one or two friends with kids. Ask them to sign up. If they like to play in the pool, and ride a bike. . . they are qualified. This event is about encouraging fitness, and having fun. All ability levels are welcome. Kids can even use training wheels and flotation if needed
