IronKids Alpharetta Race

Submitted by Carolyn BarronHannah and Lane Barron competed in the IronKids Alpharetta (Atlanta, GA) race on Sunday, September 13. This was the largest kids’ race we’ve ever seen much less participated in. Almost 900 kids ages 6-15 were registered.

Hannah competed in the 11-year old female category which had a total of 38 girls. She had a solid 150 meter swim, a super 4 mile bike on a course with some long hills (2nd fastest bike split in her age group) and a good run (3rd fastest run) to claim the 2nd place in her age group!

Lane also raced well in the 10 year old male category and completed his swim easily, rode hard on the bike (fastest bike split of all 66 ten-year old males) and finished strong with the fastest run split of all his 10-year old male competitors as well! He placed 1st in his age group.

This race qualified both to race at IronKids nationals in Tucson, Arizona in October. Watch out …here we come!
