Weetbix Tryathlon

Hi everyone,

Last weekend was fantastic. Some very enthusiastic kids from Room 20 - along with hundreds of others from around Auckland, participated in the Sanitarium Weet-bix Kids TRYathlon.

Miss Pedersen and some very supportive parents braved the masses and joined in with other spectators and participants and cheered on the kids! It was a stunning day in St Heliers - lots of suncream and water was required.

Our 'try-athletes' had to swim 50m, bike 4km and then run 1.5km. A lot of training and sheer determination got them to the finish line with huge smiles on their faces. Well done on a fantastic achievement!

It was great to see everyone having a go.  Hopefully they have inspired you to give next years TRYathlon a TRY! Talk to Caroline, Charlotte, Lilly, Mitchell, Molly, Tegan, Rowan, Ruby or Thomas if you want to know more :)

Check out the tryathlon website here for more details! and take a look at some of our 'try-athletes' here....
