This year's Triabuddies aren't just spectators--they'll have the privilege of competing together in a kids triathlon event in Panama City, Florida! During the first four months of the program, the Triabuddies will work with their mentors to prepare for one of the following distances (varies depending on age):

100 yard pool swim, 3 mile bike, 1/2 mile run
200 yard pool swim, 6 mile bike, 1 mile run

The KidsTri2 Triathlon is scheduled on the weekend following the Triabetes Captains Training Camp, so parents and mentors will all be there to cheer on their Triabuddies. Also in town is the Ironman Florida Triathlon, so everyone will have the opportunity to be inspired and see what the Triabetes Captains are preparing for.

Insulindependence will cover Fri-Sat night hotel rooms for each family, ground transportation, and meals throughout the weekend. Below is the weekend schedule of events:

	Friday  Afternoon/evening shuttles from airport  Dinner for families as they check into the hotel  Evening group activity
	Saturday  Group shuttles to Ironman Florida race start  Morning one-on-one time with captains  Kids race registration and group dinner
	Sunday  Early breakfast at hotel, shuttles to kids race  KidsTri2 Triathlon  Lunch celebration/farewell, shuttles to airport
