Harrisonburg Youth TryAthlon
About this race
Our intentions are for everyone to enjoy themselves while participating in three variations of physical activity including swimming, cycling, and running. This event has a maximum of 100 participants. Registration will close once this has been reached. We depend heavily on volunteers to ensure the safety of our participants, please consider volunteering your time, contact Matthew.little@harrisonburgva.gov or Erik.Dart@harrisonburgva.gov if interested.
This event is designed to be a low-key introduction to triathlons for the ages of 5-14. All finishers will receive a race completion medal. As we will post event results, we will not be awarding places. The courses have been setup and designed to fit all levels of ability and experience. Our goal is for everyone to complete the course and take the focus away from competition. We want participants to enjoy themselves and have the desire to participate in future events.
