Climb -2-Zip This exciting course starts off with a climb via climbing holds up to a 32-foot-high platform, then glide along the 100-foot zip line. 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.
Kayak is on the Catawba River, around a buoy and back to the launch.
Bike is on paved trails, wide and flat for 5-7 yr olds and single track dirt trails for 8+. We encourage you to practice on the trails as much as possible before race day. Trail information can be found on the USNWC website.
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.
After the race grab some lunch then spend the rest of the day enjoying all the amenities that are included with your AllSport Day Passes!
PARKING $5 fee per car. 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 SESSION All registered participants may attend these free training session 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 USNWC (meet outside the Outfitter’s Store) 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.
