The triathlon is sponsored by Amy’s Amigos in conjunction with The Core Foundation. Amy's Amigos is a South Lakes High School club, who focuses on raising money for brain cancer research and empowering young adults to live fit and have fun. Amy’s Amigos formed in 2008 in memory of Amy Boyle, a sixth grader who lost her battle with brain cancer. Inspired by Amy’s spirit, athleticism and love of life, Amy’s Amigos has participated in the American Cancer Society Relay For Life for the past three years and held numerous fund raising activities to raise more than $30,000 since its inception. The proceeds from Reston Youth Triathlon, Be AMYazing! will go to the Childhood Brain Tumor Foundation.
