Bristow Area Triathlon and Swimming
Youth Triathlon
2008 BRATS Youth TRI Programs
We Had
a Great Spring 2008...Check back in December for our 2009 Program!!!
One of our main goals is to promote
the sport of triathlon to the youth of our communities. Triathlons are
great for the youth because they encompass the sports of swimming, biking, and
running. This leads to cross-training helping to alleviate the strain on
muscles, bones, and soft tissues. Youth triathlons distances are tailored
for each age group so don't think they are going to be Ironman or even Sprint
Distance races. Triathlons are up and coming and are wide open for
motivated youth to excel in competition if they so desire.
We are in the process of setting a Youth Triathlon Series in our area consisting
of 3-4 races throughout the spring and summer. More information to follow
as we progress.
