Youth Running Program with 4Run3 and Ordinary Marathoner Foundation

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


This program will help participants learn about the joys and rewards of running and potentially cultivate interest in continuing as a high school track and/or cross country athlete. The group will be split into two groups: 3rd to 5th graders will learn about basic running form, while 6th to 8th graders will learn more advanced running strategies.  Both groups will learn how to be efficient runners and how to pace themselves appropriately.  Each program session will feature a coaching mini lesson, a dynamic group warm up, a run (which will vary in intensity and distance), and a group stretch. At the completion of the program, participants will be invited to participate in a Halloween-themed 5k road race.  Included in the cost of the program is a program shirt and entry into the graduation 5k. Water/ Gatorade will be provided for each session.

* Parents do not get free entry into the race, please register here for all other family members!
