Lewisburg Kids Triathlon

Several Jersey Shore and Lock Haven swimmers ventured down to Lewisburg to participate in the Lewisburg Kids Triathlon on Friday night, August 19.  Results can be viewed here and pictures can be viewed here (not posted at the time of this blog posting).  Below are some videos of area kids in various stages of the race.

It is only fitting that the triathlon starts off with swimmming.  The younger kids swam 2 widths of the pool while the older kids swam 50 yards or 100 yards.


Watching the kids transition is always interesting.  Pulling on shoes and shirts is a bit harder when wet.  Below, Jersey Shore's Alex B. takes his time transitioning from swimming to biking.


Jersey Shore's Jordan O. gets a little help from dad who has her shoes on before she even knows it.  Notice as she runs to the bike the wave of kids in that heat.  These waves went on for awhile.




After the bike, the triathletes must transition to the final leg, the run.  This is much easier as you just drop your bike and run.  Jersey Shore's Emma B. transitioning from bike to run.



The run is the hardest for many as they are pretty tired from sprinting the last two events.  Lock Haven's Jordy S. pounds the pavement as he sprints to the finish line.


For those interested, the Jersey Shore Kid's Triathlon is scheduled for July 20, 2012 while the Lewisburg Kids Triathlon is scheduled for August 17, 2012.
