Entries sought for Try-athlon
Chadron State College students and employees are being encouraged to kick off the fall semester by joining other community members in entering the Chadron Try-athlon, a competition that involves swimming, biking and running. The event will be Sunday, Aug. 30, at 2 p.m.
People may enter as individuals and perform all three events or sign up as a team of three and divide the duties. The Try-athlon includes one-tenth mile of swimming in the Armstrong Pool, five miles of biking on city streets and Hidden Valley Road, and three miles of running on city streets and the Heritage Trail near campus. A post event picnic and celebration will benefit the Chadron Boys and Girls Club.
The event is being sponsored by the Chadron Lifespan Wellness team, an ad hoc committee that advocates healthy lifestyles.
Entrants who register by Aug. 10 will be given a discount on the entry fee.
Information about the event, including registration materials and fees, may be found at the organization’s Web site, www.chadronwellness.com. Entry forms also are available at Chadron City Hall, Chadron Chamber of Commerce and the Chadron Medical Clinic.
