Flash Fit Fall Youth (Family) Running Program

🏃‍♂️ Program Overview

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

• When: Tuesdays at 5:00pm.
• Location: 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.
• Duration: Starting November 4th and wrapping up on December 16th.
• Participants: Appropriate for kids of all ages, though parents should expect to participate (at no cost) with younger children.

🏆 Session Highlights

• Endurance Focus: Each session, we will focus on building running endurance through a focus on running form and appropriate pacing.
• Free Parental Participation: 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!
• Post-Run Snack: The kids will all receive a post-run snack at the end of each run.
• Finisher's Prize: All youth runners will receive a small finisher's prize at the end of the program.
