Course Descriptions
Swim
Easy swim from one end of Kits Pool to the other and then back, wear a wetsuit, hang onto the edge if you get tired, or hop out and take a little rest.
Bike
Out and back towards Jericho Beach starting along Cornwall Avenue then following Cornwall Avenue follow signs towards Jericho Beach. Turn around and head back to Kits Beach for the run. The road will be open to public traffic so athletes must ride single file unless passing another participant. This is a fun ride not a race.

All finishers will receive an Official “Almost My First Triathlon” T-shirt.
Ages:
Since the First My First Triathlon five years ago, the majority of athletes are between the ages of 25 and 45 with the youngest being 6 and the oldest being 74.
Time Limit:
Take all day, stop for a rest there is no time limit. We will be waiting for you at the finish line with your T-shirt
What to wear:
Most athletes wear a swimsuit then just throw on either their bike shorts or running shorts for each of the event. Bring a large towel if you wish to change in the transition zone. No public nudity please. Change rooms located next to Kits Pool.
Bike Inspections:
Bikes will be checked to see that wheel levers are secure when you arrive in the morning.
Bike Racks in Transition Zone:
We have specially designed bike racks that hold your bike and leave room for you to have your running and swimming gear along side. Please make sure that you leave enough room for six bikes per rack. We also recommend a small pail with water in it to get the sand off your feet after the swim. And great for dumping over your friend’s head for passing you near the finish line.
Entry includes:
Pre and post race refreshments and the coveted “Almost at Triathlete” finishers shirt plus a $20/discount off any My First/Next Triathlons.
