Organiser's Description

WHAT IS FAST RABBITS?

The Fast Rabbits Youth Running Club offers participants the opportunity to participate in regular physical activity and to learn about healthy lifestyle behaviors along the way. We're not just here to prepare for a race, we're here to empower your athlete with knowledge and an understanding of lifelong fitness.

Though our focus is, ostensibly, on running, we allow kids time to just be kids as well! Your athlete will be introduced to different types of running/training (i.e. road running, trail running, track workouts and circuit training), running drills and stretching to improve form and prevent injury, as well as fun game

WHAT IS MIT?

Since 2001, Fleet Feet and Marathoner in Training (MIT) have been the most comprehensive running and walking resource in Central Ohio. No matter your experience, your speed or your goal, we are here to help you become the best version of yourself.

Thousands of runners and walkers have trained with us. We often hear from our participants that running and training within this community changed their life, one mile at a time.

WHAT WILL THE KIDDOS DO?

The kiddos will do the Fast Rabbits Winter Season conditioning workout, which will consist of about 10 minutes of dynamic stretching/drills, 20 minutes of running, 10 minutes of strength training (body weight exercises), and 10 minutes of static stretching -- with plenty of water breaks in between!

Adults are welcome to stay with their kiddos if their kiddos would feel more comfortable with them in that capacity.



WHAT WILL THE ADULTS DO?

THE ADULTS WILL SPLIT INTO THEIR PACE GROUPS (8:00MIN/MILE TO 15:00MIN/MILE), AND GO FOR A NICE 5-MILE TRAINING RUN ALONG THE HERITAGE RAIL-TO-TRAIL PATH.





HOW OLD SHOULD MY KIDDO BE?

THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION! WE DON'T LIKE TO PUT STRICT AGE LIMITS WITH FAST RABBITS KIDDOS, BUT WE GENERALLY SAY THAT KIDS SHOULD PROBABLY BE IN AT LEAST 1ST OR 2ND GRADE, OR HAVE SOME PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH RUNNING.

SO, IF YOUR YOUNGIN IS IN KINDERGARTEN, BUT HAS RUN A BUNCH OF 5KS AND YOU CAN'T SEEM TO GET THEM TO SIT STILL FOR A MINUTE, THEY'LL PROBABLY BE JUST FINE.



I'VE NEVER DONE MIT BEFORE, IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD KNOW?



MIT and Fast Rabbits both provide water to the younger athletes, as well as water stops along the route, however we do not provide cups.

Please bring your own water bottle, or reusable collapsible cup.

Don't have one? Head to your closest Fleet Feet to pick one up today!
