The USA Triathlon Splash & Dash Youth Aquathlon Series will again feature beginner-focused events in cities across the United States with the aim of increasing participation in multisport.
The Splash & Dash Youth Aquathlon Series was first launched in 2012 with 30 events, expanding to 52 in 2016. More than 2,000 athletes ages 7-15 are expected to participate, with events taking place in nine of USA Triathlon's 10 Regions. The 2016 series kicks off at the beginning of March and runs through October. USA Triathlon partnered with race directors, community centers, coaches, clubs and parks and recreation departments to solidify the slate of more than 50 events for the year. The USA Triathlon staff will also host one of the events in Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Aug. 27.
Participants ages 7-10 will cover a 100-meter swim and a 1-kilometer run, while athletes ages 11-15 will complete a 200m swim and a 2k run. Visit usatriathlon.org/splashanddash for complete information on the Splash & Dash Youth Aquathlon Series.
