KIDS RUN began with the Prevea Luv2Run program and has grown each year. Our goal is to create a love of running and a healthy lifestyle in our school age students in the Dickinson County.
There are currently three programs going on in our Iron Mountain Public Schools and Breitung Township Schools.
At Woodland, early kindergarten and kindergarten students must have a parent/guardian attend all training sessions with them.
This year we are grateful to our sponsors as they will be paying for all participants t-shirts and our 3rd Annual Kids Run 5k.
At this time we have approximately, 300 student runners. At North Elementary, they have about 70 kids running each Monday and Wednesday. At Woodland, we have 230 students running on Tuesday and Thursday.
Our coaches are strictly volunteers and without the help of the parents, this program would not be a success.
***Thursday, May 11th starting at 3:30 pm KIDS RUN Iron Mountain/Kingsford will be hosting our 3rd Annual Kids Run 5k event. All students that have participated in the trainings at North Elementary or Woodland Elementary are invited to participate in the run. There will be water and fruit at the end of the race. All finishers will get a finishers medal. The event will conclude with a pizza party for the participants.***
