Event Description

This season we are happy to expand our Nationally recognized Youth Running program to Kids and Parents with our FAMILY and YOUTH RUNNING PROGRAM!  Parents have the opportunity to train alongside their children (ages 4-14) for a 5K race, the Heart and Soul 5K on March 28th. The program will focus , developing  good running habits including warm up, stretching, form, breathing, pacing, and cool down. Each session will last approx 1 hour and include post run stretching as well as overall fitness and healthy lifestyle discussions. Each ‘runner’ will be placed in a group with others of similar age and ability.  The groups are coached by  experienced adult runners from the NWBRRC .  The program is under the overall direction of head coach Melissa Schwartz, USATF Level 1 Certified
