Description
After a SUCCESSFUL summer launch in Arlington Heights with over 100 runners, CARDIO KIDZ is coming Hoffman Estates this September/October! Join us for a three (3) week running series for kids ages 2-14 of ALL ABILITIES. Each race takes place once a week on Sunday and offers age-appropriate running events including the 50 & 75-yard dashes, 1/4-mile, 1/2-mile and 1-mile run. Kids can register to run UP in distance for a greater challenge. An Alternate 1/4-mile race is available and a great option for kids new to running. Designed for 2nd-8th graders who may not quite be ready to run their suggested grade distance. And that's OK! We hope they will give it a try and will encourage them every step of the way!
In addition to the physical benefits of running, the program aims to build social-emotional skills. The Cardio Kidz environment is great for the seasoned runner and also those who may never run before. We will focus on the word COURAGEOUS in age-appropriate discussions before each race and will track weekly progress to promote goal setting and increase self-confidence. The emphasis of this series is on self-improvement vs. competition with others. We realize that accomplishments look different for everyone, and it is our goal for every participant to make big strides and have FUN while doing so!
Pricing: $35 registration fee includes: Three (3) Weeks of Guided Races, three (3) Race Bibs, Goal Tracker Sheet, Weekly Progress Report and Finisher Medal.
$5 Sibling Discount. Registration is non-refundable.
Rain Date: October 13th
