The triathlon aims to introduce and have fun practicing this sport. The event is FREE, the races are not timed, and everyone goes at their own pace. Parents can accompany their children throughout the course. We accept bikes with 2, 3, or 4 wheels, swimmers with or without floaties (don't worry, the swimming is done in the shallow part where kids can touch the bottom). The important thing is that everyone has fun and is proud of themselves! Everyone will receive their medal and treats at the finish line! You will need to confirm your presence on the day of the event, upon arrival at the Base de plein air du Lac Nairne. For those worried about the distances, don't worry! The challenge lasts about 20 to 30 minutes and the children are grouped by age. The idea behind all this is for our children to have a positive experience with sports!
Distances:
4 years (small wheels): 25m swimming (they mostly walk in the water), 500m biking, 250m running;
5 and 6 years: 50m swimming, 1.5km biking, 500m running;
7-8 years: 75m swimming, 2.5km biking, 1km running;

Bike helmets are mandatory. Road bikes are not recommended as the route is on stone dust (risk of falling +).
