Come learn and enjoy the benefits of running through a positive and rewarding experience! Your child will be grouped by ability to meet the individual needs of your child. We have created three fun groups that we hope will suit your children’s needs based on their varying degree of development The three groups are:
Lynx-My child can run, but needs frequent walking breaks during running. They can run less than 90sec. before needing a break.
Caracal-My child can run at least 2min. before requiring a break.
Servals-My child can run a mile (8min.) without requiring a break.
