Junior Run For Life
Anyone can participate but this event is geared towards kids. A one mile route completely confined to the Washburn campus will be closely monitored and protected for young runners up to the challenge. A shorter loop will be set up for younger runners and those just getting started.
Runners should gather in Lee Arena Friday, April 3rd beginning around 5:00 PM. The Jr. Run for Life will start at 6:00 PM that evening. Chaperons are welcome to participate as well. Medals will be given to all participants. Special recognition will be given to those runners completing the Jr. Run for Life 10 Mile Challenge (see below for details).
Jr. Run for Life 10 Mile Challenge
Jr. Run for Life participants are encouraged to complete the Jr. Run for Life 10 Mile Challenge (or other longer distances). Challenge participants must log a total of 9 miles prior to race day and then complete the Jr. Run for Life 1 mile course on race day. Younger runners (under age 10) who complete 4 miles prior to the race and finish the shorter Jr. Run for Life course on race day will also be recognized. Challenge participants must submit an official Jr. Run for Life training log. The log must be signed by an adult guardian/witness. The training log listed may be downloaded and printed from the runforlife.us website.
