RipRoar Youth Triathlon | Omaha, NE 2026

RipRoar Omaha is a youth triathlon in Omaha, Nebraska, for children ages 6 to 15, with registration closing in July. Young athletes swim, bike, and run at distances appropriate for their age group; a 6-year-old will not race the same course as a 15-year-old. The race divides participants into Junior (ages 6-8), Intermediate (ages 9-11), and Senior (ages 12-15). Relay options are available for families and older participants, including a Parent/Kid Relay and a Kid/Kid Relay for children who have already competed earlier. The series aims to make endurance sports accessible for young athletes from diverse backgrounds and abilities, and it has received awards for its use of triathlon to teach confidence, effort, and life skills.
