PLEASE READ!: KIDS' RUN SERIES GUIDE (COMING SOON)
3-week Running Club for kids ages 2 to 14. There will be an emphasis on personal improvement, not competition against each other. This will be a series of races where we will keep track of finish order for younger kids and times for older kids. Kids can race up in their age group but not race down. If there are special circumstances and a child needs a shorter distance, please email racingmindsatx@gmail.com
In previous 5 seasons, we have learned all about being courageous, determined, focused, curious, resilient! Running teachers so many life skills naturally! This season's word will be announced soon.
Recommended distances:
50m Dash - PreK ages 2-3
100m Dash - PreK ages 4-5
400m (.25 mi) - Kindergarten-1st grade (ages 5-7)
800m (.50 mi) - 2nd-3rd grade (ages 7-9)
1600m (1 mile) - 4th-8th grade (ages 9+)
Registration for ALL 3 WEEKS is just $30 and includes a shirt and medal.
