Kids triathlon «IRONKIDS Vietnam 2027 – Da Nang»

   A five-year-old can finish a seventy-five metre sea swim and then run a kilometre to a finish line on the sand with a crowd cheering. That is exactly how this race is designed: distances short enough to complete, yet real enough that the finish feels earned.

   The race belongs to IRONMAN's IRONKIDS series and runs inside the Da Nang race week. There are two categories: aquathlon, which is swim and run, and triathlon, which is swim, bike and run. Distances split across two age brackets, with the older bracket covering double the younger one.

   Distances by category and age bracket:

• — aquathlon, ages 5 to 10: 75 m swim and 1 km run
• — aquathlon, ages 11 to 15: 150 m swim and 2 km run
• — triathlon, ages 5 to 10: 75 m swim, 3 km single-loop bike, 1 km run
• — triathlon, ages 11 to 15: 150 m swim, 6 km bike over two loops, 2 km run

   It is built for families with children in that age range, for kids who already swim and want a race with a real transition area, and for parents who would rather their child experience a properly organised course than a casual fun run.

   The swim happens in coastal water and the finish sits on the beach, which makes the area easy for supporters to stand and watch — no small thing at a children's race. According to the organisers' own course description, the race week hub is at East Sea Park, where the swim start and the transition area are set.

   Entry differs by category, with aquathlon priced below triathlon. The organisers say the 2027 Athlete Guide will be published closer to race day, so the detailed schedule and course maps are still to come.
