Get ready to lace up those sneakers and hit the course! The Healthy Kids Running Series - Woodbury (HKRS) is back this spring for a fun-filled, five-week running Series designed for kids from Pre-K through 8th grade—with a special race for high schoolers, too! We cannot wait to see those finish line smiles each week.
Each week, kids will participate in age-appropriate races, including:
️🏃♀️ 50 & 75-yard (pre-k ages 2-5) Non-Competitive dashes there will not be trophies for these age groups.
🏃♂️ 75-yard dashes (Challenger Division)
🏃♀️ ¼ mile, ½ mile, and 1-mile runs (for older age groups)
🏃♂️ 2-mile race (for high school students)
Runners will earn points based on their finishing times, and best of all—every participant receives a medal on Week 5! 🎉 Pre-School runners ages 2-5 will be non-competitive this season concentrating on "Race Fundamentals" and getting better every week.
Sign up for the full five-week series and receive:
✔️ Race bibs for each week
✔️ A Healthy Kids Running Series T-shirt
✔️ A finisher’s medal
✔️ Sponsor giveaways
📅 Early Bird Registration is available online until April 6, 2025—so don’t wait! (Please note: Registration is non-refundable and non-transferable.)
