3kids Cd. de México 2025 Triatlón Infantil: Igniting Young Champions
A Non-Competitive Celebration for Ages 6–13
Why This Event Matters
Picture this: a sea of tiny triathletes, their faces alight with determination and joy, crossing the finish line with pride. That’s the magic of the 3kids Cd. de México 2025 Triatlón Infantil —an event designed not to crown winners, but to spark a lifelong love for sport.
As a parent and former youth coach, I’ve seen firsthand how these experiences shape confidence. One of my athletes, an 8-year-old who once feared deep water, finished her first triathlon and declared, "I’m unstoppable!" That’s the power of events like this.
