Healthy Kids Running Series
Healthy Kids Running Series was created to provide kids with a positive, educational, and fun experience in the world of running. Healthy Kids Running Series ("HKRS"), is a running program that motivates kids to be healthy and active while providing a fun environment to improve their self-esteem. HKRS encourages kids to adopt a “Get Up and Go” attitude. About the Program: The Healthy Kids Running Series is a five week running program in the spring and fall for kids from Pre-K to 8th grade. Each Race Series takes place once a week and offers age appropriate running events including the 50 yard dash, the 75 yard dash, the 1/4 mile, the 1/2 mile and the one mile run. Kids compete each week of the Series for a chance to earn points and at the end of the Series the top boy and girl with the most points in their respective age division receive a trophy. It doesn’t matter how fast or slow you run because all participants receive a medal and gift bag for their achievements courtesy of our sponsors! Join us as we encourage kids to adopt a healthy and active lifestyle, help increase their self-esteem, and make new friends!
