our program

Marathon Kids challenges youth to run, jog, walk or move the equivalent of four (or more!) marathons throughout a season. Marathons are reached by kids finishing miles in achievable increments or completing minutes of heart-pumping activity.

We provide the digital platform to track, while coaches bring the fun, energy, and encouragement to motivate kids to go further than they ever thought possible.
