LOCATIONS AND SCHEDULE

ADVENTURE RUNNING KIDS® is a 10 week adventure running program that runs in the Fall and Spring for kids aged 6 and up that builds stronger, faster and smarter runners and an appreciation of the environment. 

 

ADVENTURE RUNNING KIDS® combines trail running, navigation and cross country running into a fun and muddy eco-adventure that also teaches problem solving skills that are valuable in training, racing and life.

Each season culminates with the weekend ARK FEST race where kids get to meet participants from ARK locations throughout the Golden Horseshoe.
