COURSE DESCRIPTION Please see the Course Map for distances and details. This is a TEAM event, parent/child or 2 teens, and both will do the whole race together. **Canoes will be provided**
Canoe is in Lake Crabtree, around a buoy and back to the beach. Age group start. We start 11-17 year olds first, then 8-10 and end with 5-7 with time gaps in between to provide the most safe race course possible. Estimate start times for 8-10 year olds will be 1:30 pm and 2:00 pm for 5-7 year olds.
Bike is on dirt trails, wide and flat for 5-7 yr olds and single track dirt trails for 8+.
Run is on paved & dirt trails, some inclines.
Special Tests We can’t tell you what they will be until race day but rest assured they will make you look silly and be a blast. Remember that this is a race for the KIDS with assistance provided by the adult. Let’s all make this a special experience for them.

PARKING Please park in the parking lots marked by KIT or event signs.

AWARDS We will present all finishers with an award and enter their bib number into a raffle filled with goodies. Age Group and Relay awards will be presented at the end of the race. Results will be posted on the website that week. KIT strives to foster motivation in fitness rather than competition against others.

TRAINING SESSIONS All registered participants may attend 1 Training Session (all sessions included for ClubKIT members), to get them familiar with the race course, transitions and get any questions answered. We highly recommend these sessions to assure your racer they will be comfortable on race day. All sessions will be held on location at Lake Crabtree (meet on the field at the first parking lot) and conducted by KIT staff. Bring everything you would on race day as we will ride and run the course. All kids under 10 will need an adult to accompany them on the ride & run.
Please reserve a space by filling out the form sent to you about a month before race day or shortly after registering, whichever is later.

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY In the event of inclement weather, the race directors have the right to reschedule the start time and/or cancel the competition.

Unfortunately, due to costs that will have already incurred, we will not be able to refund fees; however, will do our best to reschedule the event at a later date.
