Although this winter may have been pretty mild the weather has not been the best. My boys have been extra crazy these last few weeks wanting to get outside and run. Lucky for them (AND ME!) the perfect event for them is coming up soon right here in Gloucester County! Healthy Kids Running Series 2020 will be starting up right in your own backyard or neighborhood this week!

Healthy Kids Running Series is a five (5) week running program in the spring and fall for kids from Pre-K through 8th grade. Each HKRS Series takes place once a week and offers age appropriate running events including the 50 and 75 yard dashes, the 1/4 mile, the 1/2 mile and the one mile run. Kids compete each week for a chance to earn points. At the end of the Series the boys and girls who accumulate the most points in their respective distances are awarded trophies. All participants receive a medal and shirt!
