I Can “Tri”athlon 2019

Miamibucs is gearing up for the fourth annual “I Can Tri” for 2019. This adapted triathlon designed for children ages 4-14 with different abilities will be held at the Troy Aquatic Park on July 21, 2019. The race will start at 11:30, immediately following the Troy Kids Triathlon. Participants will complete a lap in the pool, bike or tryke in the Hobart Arena parking lot, and then finish with a lap of
running/walking/gait training around the Troy High School Memorial Stadium. The race course is adapted to meet the needs of each participant, and 2
volunteers are required to help meet the needs of each participant. Volunteers and trykes will be available for those in need, and a doctor will be on premises during the event.
The cost is $25 per participant, which includes a goodie bag and T-shirts for the participant and volunteers. Proceeds for the “I Can Tri” benefit Miamibucs, a non-profit organization that provides Amtrykes for children and adults with disabilities who live in Miami County. Please visit the Miamibucs page on Facebook or contact Faye McNerney or a Miamibucs representative at Miamibucs@riversidedd.org for more information.
