Distance: 27.4 km from Cameron ParkSat, Aug 08, 2026 at 8:00 AMSee full details
The Cordova Youth Triathlon is kicking off this summer in Rancho Cordova! This will be a race for kids ages 6-16 that combines three activities – swimming, cycling, and running – completed one after the other, with short transitions in between. The distances are adjusted based on age groups, so younger participants might do very short courses, while older youth take on slightly longer challenges. This is our first year, but we hope to make this an annual event.
The Cordova Youth Triathlon is a great opportunity for young athletes to challenge themselves, build confidence, and have fun in a supportive, high-energy environment. We welcome participants of all skill levels and abilities. We hope to foster a sense of community and encourage them to stay active and explore the many local youth sports opportunities available in our community.
