KIDS MARATHON can be an 8 week, 10 week or 12 week training programme that enables all kids age 7- 13 to complete a full marathon (42.195 kilometres) by running between approximately 3 to 5 kilometres per week depending on the training programme.

By doing so, kids develop life-long fitness skills, social emotional learning, the tremendous feeling of accomplishment and confidence for themselves, without the high risk involved with young kids running a full marathon in one day.

The programme is completed in grand fashion as each kid is able to finish the final kilometres of the marathon distance in front of thousands of cheering fans, friends and family through the finish line .
