Kids triathlon

 

Specially adapted for children
The biking and running will be held just around the waterside so parents can watch and support their favourite athletes.
The tracks are held on closed and natural roads only.
As for the swimming, the water will be in between 21 and 24 degrees and the distances are short so that the children do not need to wear a wetsuit.
