Flash Fit Fall Youth (Family) Endurance Program

This 6-week program will encourage kids ages ~6 and older to focus on building their aerobic capacity & running endurance. Most sports Arlington kids play require running - either anaerobic bursts or more continuous aerobic efforts - so we will work on building their base!

Details:

• Tuesdays at 5:30pm.
• Meeting at Washington-Liberty High School track and running at either the track or on a local neighborhood route - depending on the high school sports schedule. (Coach Kate will email location information the day before each session). Track sessions will focus on managing pace and completion of multiple laps over a given period of time. Neighborhood routes will be run at your comfortable pace. 
• Starting September 16th and wrapping up on October 21st.
• Appropriate for kids age 6 and older, though if you have a younger child interested in joining, please reach out to Kate.
• Each session, we will focus on building running endurance through a focus on running form and appropriate pacing.
• Track meet-ups will involve a 5-10 minute warm-up and tutorial, followed by laps. Coach Kate will help track their laps, and the kids will work to increase their total distance over the course of the program.
• Parents run along for free - you don't need to register and run at your own risk, of course, but you are encouraged to join! 
• The kids will all receive a post-run snack at the end of each run.
• All youth runners will receive a completion certificate at the end of the program.
