Kids Run Club Summer Sampler

Join Active SWV from 11-1 every Tuesday at the Fayetteville Town Park and every Thursday at Collins Park in Oak Hill for Adventure Day actovoties including Active SWV’s Kids Run Club Summer Sampler!

So what is the Kids Run Club Summer Sampler?

There are four parts of every Kids Run Club practice – a dynamic warm up, a running exercise, a game or fun activity, and cool down stretches. As part of the Kids Run Club Summer Sampler, you can do any or all of these activities at the park every Tuesday and Thursday! Active SWV will have the following options available:

Dynamic warm-up station: Warming gets your muscles moving and stretched out so you don’t injure yourself when you start your workout. Active SWV’s warm-up station will have some squats, star jumps, high knees, and more for you to get your muscles moving.

Run laps around the field: After you warm up, run laps around the field and see how many laps you can do! After you reach 10 laps, you’ll get a toe token as a prize. Running laps will help you build your endurance and make you stronger and faster.

Obstacle course fun: It’s important to have fun when you exercise too. We’ll have an awesome obstacle course set up that you can run through as many times as you want. Count how many times you can do it, or time yourself and try to beat your best time.

Cool-down stretching station: After you run laps and/or do the obstacle course, it’s good to cool down your body by stretching out your muscles. This helps with mobility, and keeps you from being stiff and sore the next day after being really active. At the cool-down stretching station, we’ll have spots where you can stretch out your leg muscles like quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves, and your upper body muscles like triceps, shoulders, and abdominals.

Fun Run

The final component of any Kids Run Club is the season ending Fun Run! The Kids Run Club Summer Sampler will have a scheduled Fun Run Day at the end of July that you don’t want to miss! Participants will get a Kids Run Club medal and an Active SWV wristband as a prize for attending the Summer Sampler.
