Run Club

The Kids Run the OC (KROC) Training Program was designed to give kids an opportunity to become more physically fit, build social interactions and learn to live an active and healthy lifestyle. This is accomplished through various fun fitness games and activities that are completed in the course of 10 weeks.  It also includes nutrition challenges that encourage students to make good nutritional choices throughout the program.

By the end of the 10 weeks, participating students will have accumulated the equivalent of 25.2 miles through the fun after school planned fitness activities and they will acquire knowledge about nutrition to make better health choices. Students will finish their last mile to complete the 26.2 mile “marathon”  by participating in the  Kids Run the OC 1-Mile Run at the OC Fair & Event Center in Costa Mesa. This culminating event is a non-competitive run for kids across Orange County.  Participating students also receive a “marathon” medal, a KROC T-Shirt and a certificate.
