We offer the Gone Running program in Manalapan, Middletown and Manasquan, and hope to offer even more youth opportunities in 2025. Gone Running's objective is to provide positive experiences through running and fitness training that: 1) ultimately lead to living a vibrant and healthy lifestyle; 2) increase your child's confidence and contribute to improved performance in ANY sport he or she chooses to participate in, such as soccer, football, basketball and baseball; and 3) meet your child's current ability level, whether beginner, intermediate or advanced. When fitness is enjoyable, you get the best, most consistent and most lasting results. When a child has FUN being active, he or she is more likely to make it part of his or her life into adulthood! We take pride in teaching safe, effective running form, including drills and techniques that benefit your child in any sport he or she chooses to participate in.
Take advantage of these community events that are available to you! There are youth races at our Captain Zinn Memorial 5K in April, the Elliott Denman NJ International Meet in June, the Sheehan Classic in August, the Big Bang Mile in July, the Jersey Shore Half Marathon in September, and the Polar Bear Races in December. In addition, we host a Summer All-Comers Track Series, a 1500M kids run at our Lake Takanassee Summer series on Monday nights in July and August, and a 6-week Lester Wright Jr. Youth XC series from September to November.
