Looking for a fun and easy way to get moving with your kids? You can now access all of our tools and support by starting your very own Marathon Kids at Home running club!
The goal of Marathon Kids at Home is to help families establish healthy habits by actively working together to reach a total of 104.8 miles, the distance of four marathons. By tracking progress, one mile at a time, you will discover that you can achieve more than you ever thought possible.
Marathon Kids provides the framework, rewards, and resources, but the implementation is totally up to you. Your family’s method of movement–running, skipping, strolling, hiking, or dog-walking–is your family’s choice. The schedule and pace are up to you.
Marathon Kids at Home registration is just $20 per participant*, which includes four Nike incentives – one for each 26.2 miles achieved. Shipping and handling is included.
Registering your family club online only takes a few minutes. Simply pick a run club name, submit your payment, and you will receive an email with instructions to help you start tracking miles right away. Your incentive kit, with exclusive Nike rewards for each participant, will arrive by mail.
* If you, the parent, do not want to pay for adult incentives, do not include yourself as a participant when registering.
Marathon Kids at Home registration includes:
– Participant rewards (Nike t-shirt, shoelaces, shoe tags, and bracelet)
– A detailed Family Guide with tips and resources
– Mileage logs to track progress (one for each of four marathons)
– Access to specialized support from the dedicated Marathon Kids staff
