The Center Recreation Beginner Triathlon is held each year at the Sand Dunes Swimming Pool in Hooper, Colorado. The philosophy of the event is to celebrate the accomplishments of all triathletes who participate, especially beginners. Participants are given a T-Shirt, a goody-bag, breakfast (after the event) and first timers recieve a medal upon completion. Awards are not given for finishing in the fastest time, as the celebration for competing is left at the personal level. Finishers can also choose a special someone to hang their medal on them when they complete the event. This year's event will take place on Saturday June 4th, 2011.
