Foothills Feat Triathlon on Sunday

2012-05-30T19:55:24Z

Please support the Foothills Feat local triathlon on Sunday. The race director is a friend of mine and the race is held at our home pool, the Ridge! We have been given discounted race entries for our team members and parents! Please refer to the 2012 race planning presentation on the members only section of the Kids that TRI website for the special codes to use.

Kids that TRI will have our tent set up so remember to stop by, drop your gear and hang out with the rest of the team and family members. Remember to wear your uniforms if you are participating in the race or any Kids that TRI team clothing to support our team!

Announcements

2012-05-29T03:20:26Z

A few announcements for the team and their parents:

1. If your child is a Kids that TRI RED team member in Tuesday practices, please have them bring their swim cap and goggles to practice on Tuesday, May 29. They will be practicing transitons and will be getting wet before going to their bike.

2. This is the last week of our Spring Training session. Our first summer camp begins Tuesday, June 5!

3. Our monthly team fun run, the Rox Run, is on Saturday beginning at 8:00am. We will begin warm-ups at 7:45am and will begin the 1k first followed by the 3k then the 5k. All 2012 annual team members, their families and their siblings are encouraged to participate. While we will time it with stopwatches, this is meant to be a fun run (especially since some of our team members will be doing the Foothills Feat triathlon on Sunday). The Rox Run will begin very close to where our Roxborough Duathlon for Kids race begins in Roxborough. To get there, there are two ways: 1) take Wadsworth south to Waterton Road, take a left on Waterton Road until you reach a stoplight; take a right (south) at the stoplight; pass through another stoplight and you will see a row of houses on your right; immediately after the houses, turn into a large parking lot with a gazebo at the southwest corner of it; this is Roxborough Community Park; park here and walk down the hill to the west to the start, 2) you can also access it by going south on Santa Fe to Titan Parkway; turn right (west) on Titan Parkway and continue following it until you reach the first stoplight then follow the directions as listed above.

4. The Foothills Feat triathlon is on Sunday, June 3. Kids that TRI will have a tent so be sure to stop by, drop your gear off and mingle with other team members and families to support them during the race.
