Small Fry Tri - Ages 2-5

The Small Fry Tri is all about fun, smiles, and making memories! Designed for our littlest athletes, this is a non-competitive event with no pressure—just plenty of excitement and encouragement. Little racers will slide down the splash park water slide, ride whatever they choose—a Big Wheel, scooter, bike, or anything with wheels—and finish with a run through the big finish line! Parents, family, and friends are encouraged to cheer them on and help along the way. It’s a fun-filled introduction to the excitement of a triathlon and a great way to celebrate our youngest participants!
