2013 Kids Triathlon #1

Huntersville Family Fitness and Aquatics - HFFA’s kids’ triathlon series, which comprises four events – April 24, May 16, June 13 and July 18 – began in 2009, one year after HFFA’s adult sprint triathlon event first took place.  The goal is to encourage area youth to be physically active and fit, and to teach them there’s more to modern-day athletics than traditional stick-and-ball sports. The kids’ triathlons, expected to draw 1,100-1,200 participants per summer for the four events, are open for ages 4-14. They have become a regional attraction with participants from Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee and the Midwest. Visit http://www.hffa.com/2013KidsTriathlonSeries.html for more information.
