The ScootAthlon is a mini fun triathlon for children between the ages of 4 and 8 where they scoot, bike and run. The event will be held on the Sunday of our races at Dorney Lake so it's a great way to introduce the kids to a bit of the fun of triathlon before or after you (the parents) do your bit.
Entry form for the 13th July
Boys will race with Girls at the same time in various age categories (depending
on numbers). The age categories are typically:
PLEASE NOTE: Your age is your age on the day of the race!
The race begins with a 400m 1 lap scoot (any scooter is suitable) then it's into transition, put down the scooter and pick up the bike and cycle the 400m lap. Then it's back into transition for the last time, leaving the bike next to the scooter and then out for the final 250m run to the finish gantry.
Scooting, cycling and running will always be in an anti-clockwise direction and all three disciplines should be done wearing a helmet. We've put a selection of pictures from this year's races in the gallery below so you can get a flavour of what it's all about.
All children taking part will get a race T-shirt and parents are asked not to get too excited...
