From the Race Organizer
The TriChix Multisport Splash & Dash brings you the excitement of an “Aquathlon”event - an official USA Triathlon race format that combines swimming and running. Participants can choose either the short course (450 yd swim, 2 mile run) or the long course (900 yd swim, 4 mile run). Other things you should know: ➡️This event is perfect for anyone looking to try something new, reconnect with competition, or have fun with your fellow Chix. ➡️Not ready for the full format? That’s ok; you can choose to do just one of the disciplines. ➡️The event is open to all active members and will be capped at 50 participants ➡️The event will be held at Park West - Soundside parking lot ➡️Refreshments and fellowship to follow afterwards. Due to the busy nature of the beach during this time, our event site must be broken down by 9:45 a.m. ➡️ Want to volunteer instead? That’s great! We need all hands on deck (TriDudes are welcome too)!
