Race DetailsAnkle chip timing used at the Longmont Kids Only Triathlon

Participants are responsible for counting their swim, bike and run laps. Parents and spectators may assist with counting, but it is ultimately the participants' responsibility. If a participant does not complete the correct amount of laps, they are not eligible for place awards.

Swim

The swim is located in the indoor 25 yard Centennial Pool. The pool temperature is approximately 83 degrees. Children must be able to swim the complete distance independently. Children can stop and rest at the walls. Swimming heats will be divided up according to ages, 2 people per lane, parallel swimming. 8 and under girls will go first.

Bike

The bike is a 2 or 4 loop course depending on the age designated distance. The bike course is on neighboring streets with plenty of viewing and cheering sections. All participants must have an ANSI/SNELL approved BIKE helmet strapped on their heads for the entire ride.

Transition Area Information

The transition area is open 6am-7:45am. Bike set-up will only be allowed before 7:45am. Bike placement within the transition area is on a first come, first served basis. Parents are only allowed in the transition area before the race begins. After the race starts, parents may only enter transition area if their child becomes injured. Bike helmets and shoes much be secured before existing the transition area.  As the age groups begin to finish, there will be escorted opportunities for participants to enter the transition area to remove belongings.
