Photos: Y's Kid's Sprint Triathlon, Splash & Dash
Almost three dozen children ran, biked or swam distances of a half-mile to more than five miles during a recent YMCA-sponsored event.
More than 30 area kids likely got a good night's sleep after participating in the Kid's Spring Triathlon and Slash & Dash at the Hill Family Center Y last weekend.
The Saturday event drew 32 children total, who each biked, ran and swam various lengths. Each child received a participation medal.
Sponsored by the Y of Central Maryland, the day consisted of the following:
Trialthon
- Children ages 5-8 swam 50 yards, biked two miles and ran a half-mile.
- Children ages 8-12 swam 100 yards, biked four miles and ran one mile.
Splash & Dash
- Children ages 5-8 swam 50 yards and ran a half-mile.

My kids, 6 and 9, participated in the Spash and Dash. They had a blast! A great event at the Y. Hope to repeat next year.
