Marathon Kids is a local, nonprofit organization which challenges children to run/walk at least 26.2 miles over the course of 6 months! At the end of the challenge, students receive prizes based on how many marathons they were able to complete in the 6 months. :)
At Callison, every 3rd, 4th, and 5th grader is automatically enrolled in Marathon Kids this year! We hope to continue to obtain more scholarships so that we can add lower grade levels in the future! |
Once again NIKE is sponsoring this challenge and the prizes!
26.2 miles completed: Marathon Kids Nike T-shirt 52.4 miles completed: Nike shoelaces 78.6 miles completed: Nike shoe tags 104.8 miles completed: Nike 104.8 finisher bracelet! |
The harder the students work toward their goals, the sooner they will receive their prizes! The only time that miles completed outside of school will count towards Marathon Kids is for participation at district approved events! Please contact either Coach A or Coach Po if you have any further questions about Marathon kids. Good luck students!!
