This year marks the 3rd Annual Kickin’ 4 Kellan 6.20K, held on what would have been Kellan’s 12th birthday. Kellan was just 6 years old when he passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. He faced every challenge with bravery, a bright smile, and a spirit that refused to dim. He loved adventure, being near the water, and spending time with the people who loved him most. Even on his hardest days, Kellan reminded everyone around him what strength and joy truly looked like. The 6.20K distance honors his June 20 birthday—a day that will always belong to him. Today, we run and walk not only to remember Kellan, but to carry his spirit forward. Each step honors his life and helps support families facing pediatric cancer, reminding them they are not alone. Kellan’s story continues through this community, through this race, and through every life touched because he was here.

The VA Super Tri is a fun, unique spin on the traditional sprint triathlon.  We took a sprint triathlon and broke it up into five mini triathlons (125m swim – 2.4mi bike – 1k run) which are completed back-to-back.   Youth Participants:  Youth will have their own race and complete just two loops of the same course.   Relay Participants:  Each relay team member will alternate running loops. One participant will complete a loop, then pass off to the next team member, who will complete the next loop. This pattern continues until all five loops are completed. This is a great way for a new triathlete to get the experience of five triathlons in one with multiple transitions, and the experienced triathlete to challenge themselves with something new!  Plus, the entire event is super spectator friendly with athletes never further than 1 mile away.
