Running Club

Co-Ed 3rd & 4th Grade Running Club

During Running Club, we’ll introduce the sport of running to kids and increase distance gradually in preparation for upcoming PTO 5Ks.

The club is open to all students in Grades 3-4 and meets after school weekly until 4 pm.

Each week, we will discuss elements of becoming a good runner while we gradually increase the distance to prepare us for the Lincoln 5K in the fall and the Willard 5K in the spring. Participants will receive free registration for the 5Ks.

Timing

There will be a Fall Running Club and a Spring Running Club this year. Participants will meet after school once a week.

Fall: Fridays from September 26 - October 17 after school from 3:10 - 4:00 pm. Pickup on the Franklin side.

Cost

This club is $25 to ensure appropriate adult supervision and support for the runners.

In addition, fall participants in the running club will receive free registration for the Lincoln 5K event on October 18, and spring running club participants will receive free registration for the Willard 5K event.
