Get ready for an action-packed weekend of swimming, biking, and running as the Houston Kids Triathlon returns on April 12-13, 2025, at Typhoon Texas Waterpark in Katy! Whether your child is a seasoned athlete or just dipping their toes into the world of triathlons, this event is designed to be fun, accessible, and inclusive for kids of all skill levels.
A Race for Every Kid
One of the best things about the Houston Kids Triathlon is that everyone can participate. From confident competitors to first-time racers, there’s an event tailored for each child’s abilities:
- Short Course Triathlon – Perfect for beginners, this course features a 125-meter swim, a 2-mile bike ride, and a 1-mile run.
- Long Course Triathlon – A bit more challenging, this event includes a 225-meter swim, a 4-mile bike ride, and a 1.6-mile run.
- Splash & Dash – For kids who want to experience a triathlon without the biking segment, this race includes just swimming and running.
- Paratriathlon & Adaptive Splash & Dash – These events are designed for athletes with disabilities, ensuring every child has a chance to shine.
More Than Just a Race
The Houston Kids Triathlon is not just about crossing the finish line—it’s about building confidence, making new friends, and celebrating an active lifestyle. The racecourse is packed with encouraging spectators, upbeat music, and high-energy volunteers, making every child feel like a superstar.
