Lindsay Kids of Steel Triathlon

RACE DATE: Sunday, June 22, 2008

The Lindsay Kids of Steel Triathlon is a three-sport event where participants engage in a swim, bike, and run, one after another. The Lindsay Kids of Steel is one of many such events across Ontario. Each of the triathlons is designed to be a fun and challenging event for children and youths up to 19 years of age.

Triathlon is a sport that combines swimming, cycling, and running. The Kids of Steel program offers a series of regional races geared towards children up to 19 years of age and their parents (aunts, uncles, etc.) The purpose of these races is to introduce young people and their parents (etc.) to the sport of Triathlon in a safe manner.
