Over 100 participants swam 350 yards, biked 17 miles and ran 3.1 miles to complete the triathlon.

Awards were given out for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each of the age categories.
While the athletes were out on the course, over 300 people were entertained with music, dancing from Kids Spot, Cheering and tumbling from the Xtreme Team, balloon animals made Benny the Clown and educational information from Northern Illinois Raptor and Rehab. Families learned about the body with activities involving the digestive system, the heart, the brain and germs. Representation from the Harlem Roscoe Fire Department also educated families with their Smoke House and fire trucks.
NorthPointe would like to thank the 100 volunteers who made this event such a success. Without them this Safe and Family Friendly event would not have been possible.
