Fast Rabbits Youth Running Club

What is Fast Rabbits?

Did you know...

• Only one in three children are physically active every day.
• Less than 5% of adults participate in 30 minutes of physical activity each day; only one in three adults receive the recommended amount of physical activity each week.

Simply put, we here at Fleet Feet are here to buck this trend and help your young athletes discover a love for running!! The Fast Rabbits Youth Running Club offers participants the opportunity to participate in regular physical activity and to learn about healthy lifestyle behaviors along the way. We're not just here to prepare for a race, we're here to empower your athlete with knowledge and an understanding of lifelong 

Though our focus is, ostensibly, on running, we allow kids time to just be kids as well! Your athlete will be introduced to different types of running/training (i.e. road running, trail running, track workouts and circuit training), running drills and stretching to improve form and prevent injury, as well as fun games (that may or may not also involve running...). Our coaches work hard on daily plans for practice that will make your young athlete excited to come back! 

NEW THIS YEAR!

We are offering you the option to sign up for our new WINTER TRAIL SEASON, or all FOUR seasons at a greatly discounted price! You also get some stylish swag... (see below for details).

Our Winter Trail Season will serve as an introduction to the sport of Trail Running for young runners. The runs will primarily be easy runs, focused on gaining familiarity with the trail, building confidence with running off-road, getting stronger for spring/summer running, and learning the basics of trail safety. Runners will run supervised with the coaches the entire session. Runners can also get free entry to the Rocks and Roots Winter Trail Series kids mile race on February 18th!

The Summer Season will also introduce different tracks for runners to have a more personalized running experience. During sign-up you will be able to select if your runner is new to the sport, or is more experienced and looking to get ready for cross country running in the fall. This will allow runners to focus on their goals, and get more personalized coaching.
