Welcome to the 23rd Annual Kids for Kids Triathlon!
Our mission is to introduce kids to the sport of Triathlon and in safe and fun environment.
Many thanks to all the sponsors and volunteers without whom this race would not be possible.
Over $120,000 given to local Kid's Charities in 20 years!
Race Information

Bike: 3.1 miles
Run: 0.6 miles
11-15 Years Old
Swim: 200 meter
Bike: 6.2 miles
Run: 1.2 miles
This event is a part of the NC Junior Triathlon Series. This means that all participants will be aged-up by USAT rules - their age by 12/31/26. This keeps all kids in the same age group through the series. If your child is 10 and will turn 11 by 12/31, then they will be in the 11-15 age group. You are welcome to "age down" and keep your child in the younger age group if that distance is more comfortable, just be aware that they will not be eligible for awards if they age down. The only kids are allowed to age down are kids who will be the age of the group on race day. For example, if your USAT age puts you in the 11-15 category, but your age on race day is 10, then you can age down. If your age on race day matches the USAT age, then you cannot age down. If you choose to age down, email [email protected] so she can make this change for you.

The organizers roll 100% of the proceeds back into the race, or to local charities with a priority to brain cancer initiatives.

7th Annual
The DeAngelo Williams Foundation's
53 Strong DeAthlon!
Saturday, August 1, 2026
Lace-up your running shoes and jump on your bike because The DeAngelo Williams Foundation is back for its 7th annual 53 Strong DeAthlon! This year the event will once again be held at DeAngelo's farmland in Monroe, NC. This gives us plenty of room to grow in the future years without venue fees and allows us to explore exciting new opportunities.
The "DeAthlon" isn't your typical duathlon, it's a run-bike-FUN event including a memory challenge along the ride courses. Come join us for all the fun and put your endurance, mental, and physical abilities to the test.
“DeAthletes” can participate individually or start/join a team. Those registering for the DeAthlon will participate in a 3.4 mile run followed by their choice of one of three bike distances. However, if you’re not ready to “Du” it, you can also sign up for only the 5K or just one of the bike ride distances.
Location: 7325 S. Rocky River Rd, Monroe, NC 28112 Williams Rushing Farm
The Run: The run is a 3.4 mile course (a mix of some road and some trails on the farm) that will begin at 7:00AM.
The Rides: Your choice of three distance routes that take you through scenic farmlands of Union County with rolling hills and low-traffic roads.
The Tiger Trail 20 Mile Ride: includes one rest stop, one timed segment
The Carolina Cruise 34 Mile Ride: includes one rest stop, two timed segments
The Legacy Length 53 Mile Ride: includes two rest stops, three timed segments
There is a mass start for all cyclists at 7:30 am, however DeAthletes can start any time after finishing the run. All routes will be clearly marked, have refueling stations, and include SAG support.
The DeAthlon: The DeAthlon consists of the 3.4 mile run followed by your choice of a 20, 34, or 53 mile bike ride which includes a memory game along the bike route. To crown the champions, the combined time of the run and the timed bike segments for each distance will determine the Top 3 Males and Top 3 Females that will receive a custom DeAthlon event football signed by DeAngelo Williams.
Registration Includes:
Swag Bag (while quantities last)
Finisher medal (for the first 300 participants registered for a DeAthlon event (5K + bike ride)
Brunch (for all participants registered for a Ride or DeAthlon (5K + bike ride)
53 Strong DeAthlon Event T-shirt (guaranteed until July 10th).
Fundraising Incentive: Train with DeAngelo Williams
This event benefits the DeAngelo Williams Foundation's 53 Strong for Sandra program that provides individuals in our community with free mammography screenings to facilitate early detection of breast cancer. When additional screenings are needed we also help fund follow up appointments and treatment needed to cover the expenses. For that reason we are offering a FUNDRAISING INCENTIVE to participants that raise $100 or more in donations on their Race Roster fundraising page by July 3, 2026. Those who qualify will have the opportunity to train with DeAngelo Williams for an exclusive run and/or bike ride before the DeAthlon. Time and location will be emailed and disclosed to those that qualify by July 10, 2026.
What is in the Participant Swag Bags?
This year our amazing sponsors will provide some great items that will be included in the swag bags our DeAthletes will receive at packet pick-up. We will update as the items are donated throughout the year.
**Some items are limited to a first come basis
Post Event
A delicious brunch will be served starting at 10:30am for all bike ride and DeAthlon (5K + bike ride) participants. Brunch sponsorship TBD. Various sponsors and vendors will also have tents setup so be sure to stop by and see what each has to offer!
The North Carolina Central University Charlotte Alumni Association is excited to host our "NCCU Charlotte Alumni 5k Run/Walk”. To those who have consistently supported this event over the years, we say THANK YOU! Your support has allowed us to award several scholarships to deserving students who are also as THANKFUL as we are. To the newcomers, we welcome you and thank you in advance for considering and supporting our race. This event is for EVERYONE! We welcome serious athletes as well as the weekend runners and walkers to enjoy a great course while supporting a worthy cause. It's not about the race-it's about bringing Community together to support Education! Every registered 5k Run/Walk finisher will receive a finisher's medal.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Living the Dream 5K Race
Date: August 1st, 2025
Race Check-In & Entry Begins: 7:15 AM
Location: Talbert Business Development Area, Lake Norman, NC
Join us for the Second Annual Living the Dream 5K Race, a powerful community event honoring the life and legacy of Coach Ben Watson — a beloved national and state hall of fame wrestling coach, mentor, and passionate servant leader. Coach Watson made a lifelong impact through his involvement with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) as a student, collegiate leader, and teacher advisor for over 30 years. He impacted hundreds of students as a teacher, wrestling coach, and FCA advisor.
This race is more than a run — it's a celebration of Coach Watson’s legacy and a rally to support the ongoing work of FCA in our local schools and sports communities. All proceeds will go toward expanding FCA’s ministry efforts in the Lake Norman area, including raising up new staff to meet the growing needs of our region.
Whether you're a competitive runner, casual jogger, or want to walk in support of the cause, we invite you to be part of something that makes an eternal impact.
Run with purpose. Live the dream. Honor the legacy.
