KIDS' PRE-RACE TRAINING CLINIC

Thanks to Graham Schulz, the Squamish Titans and TriBC, we are able to offer a pre-race triathlon clinic at Brennan Park.  The date is Sunday April 29. The clinic is $10 per child and you can register in person at the Rec Centre or online at www.squamishlive.ca.

There are three age groups for the clinic -- 7 & Unders will be from 1:00 to 1:45 am, 8-9 yrs from 2:00 am - 3:00 pm, and all other categories (age 10 and up) from 3:00 pm - 4:15 pm. Remember that your age group is determined by your age as at December 31  (not your age on race day).

The clinic gives kids a chance to run through the swim, bike, and run courses and the transitions as a group led by a coach. Each age group will stay together -- this is not a race! There will be time during the clinic to ask questions and receive helpful tips for race day.

OTHER YOUTH TRIATHLONS

While you're already getting ready for the Squamish Kids Triathlon, why not try another race too?  It's a good way to check out how you're doing and have fun at the same time.  There are lots of great youth triathlons pretty close by.  You can check out the full youth race calendar on the Triathlon BC website.  These are a few of our favourites -- click on the names to go to their websites for more details:
