Boca Raton Youth Running and Triathlon Team

Looking for a healthy and active extracurricular activity for your child?  Run for Funds Florida has teamed up with The Peter Blum Family YMCA to bring you an exceptional running and triathlon program for youth ages 5-16.

This running and triathlon program will allow your child to have the opportunity to practice swimming, biking and running with other children their age, and coaches that are experts in the field and well known in the community.  We will start out each session with a warm-up and stretch. We will focus on various techniques and skills throughout the program. Children will be split up into beginner, intermediate and advanced groups, where coaches will work to help tailor their individual needs, as well as teach them sportsmanship within a group setting. This is an AMAZING opportunity to get involved with youth running and triathlon training while having fun and being surrounded by other kids! 

The fall program is 8 weeks and we will start on October 1st and end November 29th. 

We will have practice four times a week:

• Monday (swim) 4:00 - 5:00 PM
• Tuesday (run) 4:30 - 5:30 PM
• Wednesday (bike) 4:30 - 5:30 PM
• Thursday (run) 4:30 - 5:30 PM
