Hy-Vee IronKids kicks off in Lawrence

More than 130 kids turned out for packet pickup today in Lawrence, KS in preparation for the first Hy-Vee IronKids triathlon. Such excitement! They stood in the rain to hear the course talk and asked great questions. Awesome swag bags, and the volunteers look sharp in their green t-shirts. I can’t wait for tomorrow!

Results will be posted at www.ironkids.com. I posted photos from packet pickup here, and I’ll post more from the race tomorrow. Here, Hy-Vee Triathlon Race Director Bill Burke and Hy-Vee event boss Darin Hirl talk strategery.
