The mission of Atlanta Track Club’s Kilometer Kids is to provide youth with the access and opportunity to engage in physical activity through a free, game-based running curriculum.
Being a Kilometer Kid is not about running the fastest or winning the race. Instead, it’s about Working Hard, Being Kind and Having Fun while becoming more physically active, being part of a team and finding joy in the process.
The club will follow the Atlanta Track Club's game-based curriculum which is designed to teach kids in grades K-5 about goal setting, healthy habits, respect, and community building, all by exposing them to the sport of running. Throughout the 10-week season, the goal for every Kilometer Kid is to run 13.1 miles.
