The Westfields Business Owners Association hosted the 5th annual Westfields Triathlon powered by Revolution3 Triathlon on April 30, at the Cub Run RECenter in Chantilly. The sprint triathlon consisted of a 250-meter pool swim, a 12-mile bike ride, and a 3.1-mile run. The beneficiaries of this year’s race will be Our Military Kids and Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Team in Training. The Westfields Triathlon marked the kickoff to the triathlon season in the D.C. Metro area.
