Organiser's Description
FITKIDZ RUNNING CLUB WILL MEET AT HIMMEL PARK EVERY TUESDAY AND THURSDAY FROM 5:00-6:00PM STARTING MARCH 24TH AND ENDING APRIL 16TH, 2026.
The FitKidz Running Club is FREE and will promote and highlight improved skills over a 4-week period, focusing on progress over performance and enjoyment over competition. The kids will start out running intervals of 200 meters and grow the distance each week, culminating in a mile fun run. Each 60-minute session will start with a warm-up, followed by a running activity, a running game, and ending with a short nutrition or other educational activity. If this sounds just right for your little runner ages 5-12, join us for some running fun!
