best kids bike for triathlon image
Mommy
My 9 year old and 7 year old daughters just competed in their first tri and won by a mile. They even beat the boys in their age group. I'm sorry if that sounds like I am bragging, I am not. My girls are on a swim team and my husband and I are runners and bikers, so they are always along for the ride and they say they love, love, love it. They eat healthy and get lots of rest and have a lot of fun playing with their friends in the meantime. I want to stress this b/c I'm sure I will get a lot of negative comments if I don't.
Anyhow, both of my girls thought the tri was too easy and wanted to compete in something more challenging. The course was 75 yard swim, 3 mile bike and 1 mile run. I can't find anything in the bay area (California) for kids that is more competitive and want to know where I can look. Or maybe they need to enter into an adult race? Help please. Thank you so much.
Answer
I think you should look at AAU and USATF teams; both are very competitive. Also, you might want to look into getting them into cross country. If you co to coacho.com, under calendar you can find a ton of results.
Hope this helps

Answer
In the 1980s, one of Trix's television ads ended in a cliffhanger accompanied by a write-in survey asking children whether the Trix Rabbit should be able to finally get a taste of Trix. The commercial consisted of the Trix rabbit competing in a triathlon, in which the prize was Trix. The Rabbit then got the prize of Trix, however it was taken away from him on the basis that "it is for kids", whereas other kids said because he won the race he deserved his prize of Trix. The commercial ended by encouraging kids to vote on whether or not the Rabbit should have Trix and mail-in ballots were included in cereal boxes. America's children responded with an overwhelming "yes," and a subsequent television ad depicted the rabbit finally getting to eat a bowl of Trix cereal. While he is known to have previously enjoyed a bowl in 1976, following this public intervention in 1980 he has not succeeded in gaining access to Trix again. However, in one commercial in the early to mid-1990s, the rabbit (disguised as a police officer on a motorcycle) managed to eat a spoonful of Trix given to him by two children on bikes, but he was so happy he went a little crazy and the costume fell off as usual.
Poor Rabbit! I always liked that rascal and thought he should have his Trix!
