The much-loved Kids Triathlon takes place on Saturday, June 11 at Cove Beach in Stamford. Open to children ages 6-13, the Kids Triathlon features courses and distances achievable for all athletes. The day is a fantastic family event promoting wellness and fun!
On Sunday, June 12, the Olympic race begins with a 1.5k (.9 mile) swim in Long Island Sound at Cummings Beach in Stamford, segues into a 40k (24.8 mile) bike ride from the shore, through the heart of the downtown business district and up into scenic North Stamford, and finishes with a 10k (6.2 mile) run through the streets of downtown Stamford.
The Sprint race is comprised of a 0.8k (0.5 mile) swim, 22k (13.9 mile) bike, and 5.1k (3.2 mile) run, contested on shortened sections of the Olympic course. It is the perfect race for the beginner triathlete, or seasoned racer looking for a speedy time!
The Navigators Stamford KIC IT 5k and 10k run returns this year, and will again take place along the triathlons' respective run courses - and run as standalone road races with their very own start times!
After the races on Sunday, the general public will enjoy a free, fun Family Festival, complete with music, refreshments, awards and entertainment.
