Fall 2025 Kids 5K training in Cary is brought to you by Triangle Run Smart Training, presented by Pace Yourself Run Company and The Running PTs.
Class is 8 weeks long, meeting once per week, and is geared toward kids aged 8-14 years old. The goal of the class is to have fun, get healthy, and work their run endurance up to running a 5K at the end of the season. ALL levels & paces are welcome! Kids will be grouped in smaller pace groups after a timed mile so they can train with similar paces. Class will be capped at 40 registrants.
Cost of the class is $70. No refund and no deferral if you drop out of the class after registering. Please do not register if you're unsure of your child's schedule and have a potential conflict with another activity.
Cost includes: 8 weeks of 1 coached workout per week, a season training plan with suggested workouts on non-class days as well, 20% off discount at Pace Yourself Run Company (some restrictions apply), educational information coordinated by The Running PTs, a training shirt, and an end of season medal after running the 5K in class.
