With the wonderful support of Covenant Health, we are happy to offer the 1 mile Covenant Kids' Run as part of the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon. 

Date:  Sat, 3/29/14
Time:  6:00 p.m.

The Covenant Kids Run is a program created to encourage our local children to lead healthy and active lifestyles while participating in an exciting, goal oriented, community event.  Those participating will run a total of 25 miles in the time period leading up to the race (March 29, 2014).  On race day, participants will run a 1 mile course, finally completing the marathon distance of 26.2 miles.  They have an option to run or walk the 26.2 miles.  Our goal is not only to address personal fitness, but to build self esteem and confidence through goal setting and teamwork.

Parents and/or teachers are encouraged to help during the process.  All logs can be presented upon packet pickup at the Health and Fitness Expo to receive a finisher's certificate.  Packet pick-up will be at the Expo on Saturday, March 29, 2014 at the Knoxville Convention and Exhibition Center.   Be sure and show up in plenty of time to pick up your child's packet, browse the expo, and head over to the start line of the 2014 Covenant Kids Run!

 

All participants will receive a t-shirt (Youth S-XL or Adult S-M), post-race refreshments, and a finishers' medal.
All finishers' names will be sent to the Knoxville News Sentinel to be published Monday after the race!

Registration for the Covenant Kids Run will open in October 2013.  Please check back.
