About the Event

FitKidz Running Club will meet at Himmel Park every Tuesday and Thursday from 5:00-6:00pm starting March 24th and ending April 16th, 2026.

The FitKidz Running Club is FREE and will promote and highlight improved skills over a 4-week period, focusing on progress over performance and enjoyment over competition. The kids will start out running intervals of 200 meters and grow the distance each week, culminating in a mile fun run. Each 60-minute session will start with a warm-up, followed by a running activity, a running game, and ending with a short nutrition or other educational activity. If this sounds just right for your little runner ages 5-12, join us for some running fun!

All FitKidz club volunteers must complete Abuse Awareness and Reporting Training at https://rrcanational.getlearnworlds.com/course/abuse-awareness-training. This training is mandated by Federal law and protects our FitKidz runners. Once you have completed the training, email your completion certificate to: southernarizonaroadrunners@gmail.com. The Abuse Awareness and Reporting training site is sponsored by the Roadrunners Club of America (RRCA). If you have completed this training previously, you do not need to complete the training in 2026.

About Tucson

Learn more about the host city, Tucson.

Tucson (TOO-sawn), also known as the "Old Pueblo", is the second-largest city in the state of Arizona and the county seat of Pima County in the Sonoran Desert. It is at a higher elevation than nearby Phoenix and is correspondingly cooler. Although with half a million residents it is smaller than the capital city, its cultural life is just as vibrant.
