At the Parc régional des Îles-de-Saint-Timothée, some 1,000 fourth-grade students from over 30 schools of the Centre de services scolaires de la Vallée-des-Tisserands and the New Frontiers School Board will be introduced to the various stages of a triathlon, including swimming, cycling and running.
The aim of the school triathlon is to encourage young people to acquire and maintain healthy eating habits and a physically active lifestyle. The activity takes place on a participatory basis and no time is recorded.
