About
Kilometer Kids is a youth running program where kids take part in running through a free, game-based curriculum. The program is for all elementary students regardless of running ability or experience, and it is designed to teach kids in grades K–5 about goal setting, healthy habits, respect, and community building by exposing them to the sport of running. The goal for every Kilometer Kid is to run 13.1 or 26.2 miles throughout the 10-week season, depending on how many practices they attend each week. Being a Kilometer Kid is not about running the fastest or winning the race, and it focuses on working hard, being kind, and having fun while becoming more physically active, being a part of a team, and finding joy in the process. Kilometer Kids does not offer Summer or Winter programming.
