Registration fees apply
All registered participants will receive a complimentary “Stay & Play” ticket to Adventure Island (valid on race day only). Please do not add a 'Stay & Play' ticket for registered race participants. Additional Adventure Island Stay & Play tickets available for purchase during registration at a discounted price ($42). Sales for these tickets will close at 11:59 PM on Friday, May 8.
Registration fee also includes a participant t-shirt, a finisher’s medal, and other 'swag bag' items.
In an effort to allow for more participants, we have moved away from two separate age divisions to a three-wave format. The three waves will be categorized by age range so that participants are still competing alongside others in their age group. Also, as a reminder, there will no longer be a post-race trophy ceremony. The Tampa Bay Kids Triathlon is a FUN-raising event with a focus on fun, finishing and fundraising. In recent years, the trophy ceremony has overshadowed our mission of creating an unintimidating and exciting experience for all while helping spread Gavin Lambert’s “finisher’s spirit” and supporting Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA), our race beneficiary. All funds traditionally allocated to trophies will be repurposed and included in the overall charitable donation to FARA.
