The Owensboro Parent Magazine Kids Triathlon is returning this year, with a twist! In an effort to comply with all existing COVID safety protocols, this year’s event will be an all-outdoor, bike-run event. Children ages 4-14, of all abilities, are invited to bike, run, and have fun! Join us at the Owensboro Health Healthpark on Saturday, July 31 for outdoor fun.
Registration is now open at OwensboroParent.com. The event will begin and end at the Owensboro Health Healthpark, and all roads will be closed to through-traffic, with the help of OPD. Come enjoy a live DJ, post-race refreshments, and the most fun way to get kids moving this summer!
Children are split into appropriate age groups, and will complete the following distances at the below start times:
4-6: Bike .5 miles, Run .2 miles; 7:30am
7-8: Bike 2.43 miles, Run .53 miles; 8am

Children of all abilities are welcome to participate, and families are encouraged to spectate and cheer.
“We are so excited to bring the event back this year. Owensboro Parent Magazine believes in getting families together, outdoors, and active! We love bringing our community together, and this event encompasses all of that in a really fun atmosphere,” said Ashley Gleason, race director.
