Congratulations!
We would like to thank all the Mermaids and Mini Mermaids for coming out and racing last weekend. Each year we are impressed by the spirit, enthusiasm, and hard work that everyone brings to the event. Kudos to you all!
In her article below, Coach Heidi recaps the race and highlights the spirit and success stories shared by a few of the Mermaids.
Volunteers
A special thank you to all our volunteers over the weekend. Without your help we wouldn't be able to put on the event. The Mermaid donated over $3,500 to our volunteer groups, Logan High School Girls Soccer, California Northstars Soccer Team and the Santa Clara University Women's Rugby Team.

Being a Mermaid... Your Success Stories - Coach Heidi
Find your happy pace! What's your motivation? Make a splash, go for a ride, find your stride...we've given you a lot of things to think about and accomplish! We asked, "Do you want to be a Mermaid?" Well, you did it! Maybe it all happened the way you thought it would or maybe your Mermaid journey took an entirely different path, but.... YOU did it. Even if you physically didn't do the Mermaid due to crazy circumstances that you didn't see coming, you did do it... you are a Mermaid in spirit. <more>
Mini Mermaid Run
We had over 70 mini mermaids running the 1.5 mile course. It was a huge hit and we are proud to announce that all of our Triathlon and Duathlons will now include a mini mermaid run! The next mini mermaid run will be at our September 27th, Mermaid Santa Cruz Triathlon and Duathlon
Mermaid Santa Cruz Triathlon and Duathlon
We hope to see you in Santa Cruz! Last year we introduced the Mighty Mermaid, this year we are continuing with the tradition, however it will now be an official Olympic Distance Triathlon. The Mighty consists of a 1.5 km Swim, 40 km Bike, 10 km Run and takes place in conjunction with the Mermaid Santa Cruz on September 27th. <more>
