Brief Description:
Welcome to June…and Race #3 in our Sumer triathlon Series. This is one of the most special events because it lands on Father's Day weekend, and kids can race as an individual, or as a father/son or father/daughter team (if dad's out of town, another adult can take dad's place). Everything happens at the Oakwood YMCA with the adult only race starting at 8:00 am, and the kids races (and the teams) starting at 10:00 am.

Teams:
Anyone can put together a team and come out for glory, but if you're a dad, and you want to race as a team with your son/daughter; you'll be in for a special treat. Father child teams will race side by side from start to finish during the child's age group time, and doing the childs distances. We'll have awards for the fastest teams in each age group. If dad wants to also race in the adult race earlier in the day, and then again with their child...you can do that too.
