A Monster Triathlon (Keller, Texas) a Monster Triathlon (Denton, Texas) and Kids Triathlon (Keller, Texas). 2013 marks the year 8 for the Monster Kids Triathlon which sells-out months in advance with 350 athletes (ages 4-14).
The Keller Kids Triathlon is part of the Monster Triathlon weekend and a great way to get the kids involved in the sport of triathlon while benefiting a good cause.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does my child need a helmet?

Are parents allowed on the course to help the child?
ONE parent is allowed in transition while the child transitions from swim to bike & bike to run. Parents are allowed in transition to help the child set-up.
NOTE: Parents are also allowed to do the run portion of the event with their big time triathlete child!
What if we have a bike problem (flat tire, bad chain, etc.) on race day?
Knobbies and Slicks Bike Shop will be on-hand to help.
What else should I be asking?
Now that is a good question. Rather than have you read for the next few hours, we’ve added a MANDATORY parents and child meeting at the race site at 7:10 a.m. on race day. In a nutshell, don’t stress. Simply show up with a swimsuit, bike & helmet and some running shoes. We will take it from there.
