Oak Ridge Atomic Kids Triathlon

Saturday, July 18, 2009 - 8:30 A. M.

200 meter swim/ 2 mile bike/ 1 mile run

Corporate race sponsor: Tennessee Members 1st FCU.

Location: Parking lot of Oak Ridge outdoor pool on the corner of Robertsville Road & Providence Road (one block west of the O.R. Turnpike – Highway #95 – and ‘behind’ the O.R. High School). It is best if you arrive at least 45 minutes prior to the start of the race (to ‘register’, set-up, and relax).

Course description:

Swim is an ‘out and back’ in the Oak Ridge outdoor pool – 200 meters is a ‘long’ swim – please be sure to have your child practice this distance – participant may stand on the pool bottom during the race if he/she is tired; but, may not advance forward.

Bike is a relatively flat ‘L’ shaped route – 1/2 mile out and 1/2 mile back on Providence, then 1/2 mile out and 1/2 mile back on Robertsville. Helmet is mandatory. Be sure that bike is in safe condition.

Run is 1/2 mile out and 1/2 mile back on Providence. There is one very gradual hill (in front of OR high school) – the rest of the course is flat.

There will be course monitors and water stations; however, the police department will not shut down the roads. Please be sure to explain to your children the importance of staying on course and away from possible street traffic.

Clinic: There will be a 1 hour clinic at 9:30 on Saturday, July 11th at the O.R. pool for anyone interested. We will take a look at the course and talk about the fundamentals of triathlon, including transitions. Come fully prepared (bike, helmet, running shoes, etc.). Bring $2 (for swim) if you wish to participate in a practice triathlon. Instructors will be Dorn Kile (over 25 years experience as a triathlete) and Laura Kile (over 10 years triathlon experience and a ‘Masters’ swimmer).

Cost: $15.00 (if postmarked by Saturday, 7/11/09); $20.00 for ‘late’ and day of race registration. The entry fee this year does not include USAT one-day insurance as it has in the past. The USAT fee ($5) will be collected separately at the race unless the participant has his/her current membership card (in which case the fee has already been paid for the year). The $5 fee will be good for all USAT races for the remainder of the year. If you did this race last year, the USAT membership is still good. However, you must have your card with you or you will have to pay $5 for a renewal!

Awards: Ribbons to all finishers. Awards to top male and top female (10 & under, and, 11-14); and awards to top three (3) male and female in each of the following age groups: 7-8, 9-10, 11-12 & 13-14. Note: No one over 14 on race day may participate. Also, participant must be 7 (insurance restrictions) by race day in order to enter. Top award winners are not eligible for age group awards.

Tee shirts given to all pre-registered participants and to all others as long as shirts last. Packet pick-up is ‘day of race’.

Awards ceremony will take place as soon as possible after the race. There will also be post race refreshments for the participants (as well as great ‘door prizes’ from our supporters).

NOTE: A parent or adult guardian must be at the race site at all times during the event. However, you are not allowed to help your child during the event – either on the course or in the transition area. There will be course officials and monitors who will aid those in need of assistance.

Race organized and supported by the Oak Ridge Track Club and the Greater Knoxville Triathlon Club. Thanks also for the support of the City of Oak Ridge, Cedar Bluff Cycles, Swim & Tri, Runners Market, JAWS Swim Shop, Food Lion, Kroger and Food City.
