_ The 2020 Happy Kids Duathlon #1:

The Happy Kids Duathlon Series 

The Happy Kids Duathlon race features a 1 mile run - 3 mile road bike - 1 mile run course with five races to choose from. This race offers young athletes a chance to run and bike together in one-fun-race! The 1 mile first run begins the race followed by a 3 mile road bike on roads closed to traffic and the final run is 1 mile on soft crushed granite and sand paths. This is a great early-season race for triathletes.

The January 25th Happy Kids Duathlon will be the first of our Five Race Happy Kids Duathlon Series (February 8, February 22, March 7, and March 21) for which we will have Series Champions in each 2-year age group (5-6, 7-8, 9-10, 11-12, 13-14). Finishers at each race will receive a TBF Finisher Ribbon. 

To be eligible for the Series Championship athletes must race in all five of the events. Athletes racing in all Five Happy Kids Duathlons will receive a Series Finisher Medal.
