Miles' Tips

Miles' Tips

  • Hey kids: When you practice swim, bike and run, don't forget to practice transitions, too! They can help improve your time in your next race.

  • Drafting is not allowed at most triathlons, so you'll need to keep three bike lengths between you and the person in front of you. If you need to pass someone, you have to pass them in 15 seconds.

  • Try a brick workout this year! You can either swim and bike, or bike and run. These workouts help you practice transitions, too.

Youth Splash and Dash Aquathlon Series

A Splash and Dash, known as an Aquathlon, is a fun and fast-growing sport that combines running and swimming. The USA Triathlon Youth Splash and Dash Aquathlon Series is open to athletes ages 7-15 and features a swim/run combination.
