Y Not Tri the Hat 2010

Sunday May 30, 2010 the Medicine Hat Family YMCA is proud to present the 4th annual Y Not Tri the Hat Sprint, Super Sprint Triathlon! Last year this event had a fantastic turn out and we are looking forward to even better things this year.

This year as in years past years we will be holding a Sprint Distance event with race distances of a 500m swim, 20km bike, and 5km run.  In addition, this year we are proud to offer an additional Super Sprint Distance event. The Super Sprint race will consist of a shortened course, with race distances of a 300m swim, 10km bike ride, and finishing up with a 2.5km run. This new distance event is perfect for individuals looking to experience their first triathlon event, or younger racers looking to give the sport of triathlon a try! Both races can be run as an individual, or by a team of 2 or 3 members.

Family Fun Challenge

As a special addition to this year's race, we will be adding a "Family Fun Challenge" to the day's events. In this abridged event, Children as young as 4 years old will be allowed to compete in the three triathlon disiplines of swiming, biking and running with a 50 meter swim, bike track that loops around the Medicine Hat Arena and run course leading out from the YMCA towards Maverics Field. This event will give children the chance to compete alongside their parents and the opportunity to call themselves a real triathlete! Registration for the Family Fun Challenge is only $10 for a YMCA member or $15 for a Non-Member!
