Our Super Sprint Triathlon has both competitive divisions and non-competitive divisions. The Try-a-Tri division is our non-competitive race. It is perfect for beginners, families and kids who aren't ready to compete, but rather complete a tri. In the Try-a-Tri, friends, families, and kids can use floatation devices in the swim and can ride/run together. Parents who would like to participate alongside their kids can register for the Try-a-Tri along with their child and participate along side them the entire way. In the competitive Super Sprint, normal USAT rules apply such as no floatation devices, no drafting or riding together.  The Try-a-Tri divisions do not have age group awards, but rather participation awards. The Super Sprint Competitive divisions have overall and age group awards.
