Each year hundreds of kids will enjoy the calm waters of Glenn Cunningham Lake before biking on the roads inside the park.  Then, athletes put on their running shoes for an out-and-back run over the Dam.

Bring the family to Omaha and make it a Triathlon weekend. The weekend offers the Kids Triathlon on Saturday and the Omaha Triathlon on Sunday.

Omaha Kids Triathlon (July 16^h) - The Kids race at the same venue as the adults
