The swim is in the Shady Grove YMCA 25 meter pool, located beside the Twin Hickory neighborhood in Richmond's west end. Note that swim caps are not required. The 5-8 age group will start first at 8 am sharp, followed by the older 9-14 age-group at 9am. All lil triathletes need to be cleared of transition area by 7:45am.  We would love for the big kids to cheer or help out.

 

The transition area will open at 7 am; ALL bikes (older and younger kids) need to be placed in position before the transition area closes at 7:45. Post race awards party begins at 10:30 am. Once again Master Cho will be doing demonstrations @ 10am.
