Our Origin
Hi! I am USATF Coach Kayla, the founder and head coach of Fit 5 Runners. After running track in college and being a head T&F coach for five years in Alexandria, VA. I wanted to create a program where kids could develop a love for movement that would continue throughout their lifetime!
With my background as a K-12 PE teacher, fitness coach, and USATF Level 1 coach, I’m excited to provide a fun and supportive space for kids aged 4-10 to grow, succeed, and enjoy running.
I look forward to helping your child discover their passion for fitness!
Fit 5 was created to address a gap I noticed in our community. While t-ball, soccer, and basketball are popular, there was a lack of programs focused on overall fitness. Our program is designed to benefit everyone, regardless of their background or skill level.
My kids love our program and I know yours will too!
