ACHIEVE Kids Tri, Inc. is a 501(c)3 organization dedicated to enriching the lives of youth through the sport of triathlon.
Athletes learn how to train for the swim, bike, run, and transitions of a triathlon in a free six-week camp open to youth ages 9 - 14. At the end of every ACHIEVE camp, the athletes put all their hard work into action at a USAT sanctioned kids’ triathlon. As youth navigate the challenges of a triathlon, they also build essential life skills in fitness, exercise, discipline and self-confidence.
REWARDING!
ACHIEVE provides youth with a challenging experience of hard work and fun that is rewarded with a tangible result: The ACHIEVE Kids' Triathlon.
THREE FOR ONE!
This program is an exciting “Three for One” deal; ACHIEVE allows kids to discover three sports simultaneously.
HEALTH AND STRENGTH!
Athletes build physical strength and mental determination while striving for a worthy goal.

The coaches help me with my focus. By the end, I expect to be stronger than I am now, and I’ll look at myself as being a little over-the-top. You know--able to keep going when other kids stop.
