Description

Join us on Monday, September 2nd, for the Montgomery Whitewater Labor Day 5K and Lil Tri!

Labor Day 5K | Sept. 2nd | 7:30am

The Montgomery Whitewater Labor Day 5K is a professionally timed event open to runners (and walkers!) of all ages and abilities. The unique course will take runners through the beautiful grounds at Montgomery Whitewater, with both start and finish at the Raft Barn. Awards will be given to the top finishers and 5-year age groups.

Lil' Tri | Sept. 2nd | 9am

Montgomery Whitewater’s “Lil Tri” puts a fun spin on the traditional triathlon by challenging young athletes to run, bike, and PADDLE across the finish line. Open to kids ages 6 to 11, Lil Tri consists of a 250-yard flatwater paddle, 700-yard bike ride, and 880-yard run.

Montgomery Whitewater will provide all of the equipment needed for the flatwater paddle; however, athletes will need to bring their own bike and helmet. Kids ages 6-10 must have an adult in the ducky (inflatable kayak) for the water portion of the race. 11-year-olds may paddle on their own.

Please note that this race is not timed, and no official winner will be announced. All participants will receive a race t-shirt (if registered by August 26th), medal, and tie-dye bandana.

Lil Tri athletes are invited to Montgomery Whitewater’s Golden Hour Festival on Sunday, September 1st to tie-dye their bandanas for the race! The tie-dye station will open at 1pm. Tie-dying race bandanas is free for registered athletes. Additional t-shirts and bandanas may be purchased for friends and family to join in the fun!

PLEASE NOTE

To be guaranteed the commemorative race shirt, you must register by August 26th.

Race packet pick-up is on Friday, August 30th, under the Montgomery Whitewater Park Pavilion from 3 to 6 pm.

Races will be held rain or shine. All efforts will be made to finish the scheduled events. However, in the event of extreme inclement weather that prevents us from conducting the races safely, there will be no refunds.
