Alachua County Youth Triathlon Club aims to promote the sport of triathlon to kids

This past Saturday ACYTC co-founder Andee completed the inaugural (first time) Ironman (IM) Jacksonville (yes, that town not even 2 hours away!) She joined around 1600 other triathletes in the journey to the finish consisting of a 2.4mi swim, 112 mi bike, and a 26.2 mi run. To some athletes it was their first IM and to others, it was their 10+ IM race. Regardless, all athletes battled the same heat and course. It takes mental AND physical strength to even start, let alone finish.

Regardless if you are racing an IM or doing a super sprint or kids race, the mental and physical skills needed are the same. Our club wants our young members to enjoy the sport and use it to help build confidence, friendships, and a lifelong love of being active and outside as well as challenging themselves.
