Keiki take on MCB Hawaii triathlon

Triathlon participant Amelia McCourt, 12, a native of Detroit, heads for the finish line during the Keiki Tradewind Triathlon in front of Hangar 101, Aug. 8, 2015. Steven Foster, the race coordinator, said the Keiki Tradewind Triathlon was an initiative of the Marine Corps Air Station Kaneohe Bay commanding officer four years ago. The Keiki Tradewind Triathlon consisted of a 100-meter swim, 3-mile bike ride and 0.8-mile run for the 7 to 10-year-old age division, and a 200-meter swim, 6-mile bike ride and 1.2-mile run for 11 to 14-year-old age division. The triathlon, a part of the Commanding Officer’s Fitness Series, furthers MCB Hawaii’s mission, which is to provide facilities, programs and services to sustain combat readiness for all operating forces and tenant organizations aboard the installation.
