Kids Fun Run: Mini Dash, 1/4 Mile, or 1/2 Mile

Exercise should be a healthy part of every child’s life; however, we do not believe that young children should have to deal with the stress and pressure that comes with serious competition. The Guardian Kids Fun Run is designed so that every child leaves the event feeling like a winner and sporting a medal. We do not award trophies to the fastest children overall, but rather reward and acknowledge each and every child who comes out and participates.

Life is filled with pressure and stress, let’s allow kids to be kids, run and have fun!
