What's Up: Registration Open for Kirkland Splash, Pedal, n' Dash

The Splash, Pedal, n’ Dash Kids Triathlon at Juanita Beach gives youth, ages 3 through 12, a chance to participate in a triathlon--and bragging rights.

The event will be held on Saturday, Sept. 14, 2013 and begins at 11 a.m. at Juanita Beach Park, 9703 NE Juanita Drive.

Kids can test their mettle with a 50-yard swim/splash, a half mile bicycle ride and a quarter-mile run.

Pre-registration is now available on line at www.kirklandparks.net, course code 39209. Registration fee is $30 per participant and includes a swim cap, t-shirt, and participation ribbon. The race is non-timed, non-competitive and an excellent opportunity for youth to experience the sport of triathlon. For event information, go towww.kirklandwa.gov/youthathletics.  

This year’s race is put on by the City of Kirkland Parks & Community Services Department and Kirkland Children’s Dentistry. Bicycle storage is available on site. 

Kirkland Parks and Community Services Department is committed to promoting health & wellness. For more information on this and other special events and recreation opportunities, please visit www.kirklandwa.gov or call 425-587-3300 for more information.
