Strong Kids Duathlon 17th Anniversary

Join us for the 17th Anniversary Celebration of the Strong Kids Duathlon!

Get ready for fun for the whole family at our 17th Anniversary of the Strong Kids Duathlon on Thursday, August 21st in Cobourg, ON.

The Strong Kids Duathlon is not just any race; it is an inspiring combination of running and swimming challenges that showcase the spirit of young athletes. This event promises to leave everyone smiling as young participants complete the course at Centennial Pool and around Victoria Park with hearts pounding and faces beaming. Friends and family can join in by cheering on these brave youngsters as they dash across the finish line.

What makes the Strong Kids Duathlon even more special is its commitment to supporting our community. This family-friendly, child duathlon will be channeling dollars raised more specifically into supporting our special Mothers of Newborns program. This important program provides mothers and their babies with an easy and safe path toward wellness while creating a network of support during babies’ first year.

YMCA Membership is not required to participate in the Strong Kids Duathlon – any child aged 3 to 15 can register and participate in this event.

For our 17th anniversary, the fee to participate is $17 per child (+processing fees) and we will be offering a special soft towel keepsake of the event for $17 (+tax).
