Please join us for the 14th Annual I RUN Kids Marathon A Summer RUNNING & READING Program

Do you know how long a marathon is? It is 26.2 miles. Can you run a marathon? YES! Can you read 26 books or for 26 hours over the summer? YES!

All children, 8th grade & under, are invited to participate. Join kids from all around and challenge yourself to finish the I RUN Kids Marathon. You will run 26.2 miles over the summer and read 26 books or read for 26 hours, which will improve both your body and your mind. You may run or walk the 26.2 miles in ¼, ½ or 1 mile increments, and read in ¼, ½, 1 hour or per-book increments. By entering, you can print out a log sheet to help you keep track of your running and reading. By finishing, you will not only be considered a marathoner for life, but will also receive an I RUN Kids Marathon T-shirt. Then, join us on August 28 to run the FINAL MILE of your marathon and cross the finish line a WINNER! There will be music, food, festivities, and giveaways at the Final Mile event, which will be held at Wisconsin Lutheran College’s Outdoor Athletic Complex located at 1401 N. Swan Blvd, Wauwatosa, WI.

What is the I Run Kids Marathon Program?
It is a program where kids will run (or walk) and entire marathon, 26.2 miles, over the summer, a 1/4 mile at a time. Kids will also read either 26 books or for 26 hours, 1/4 hour at a time, over the summer. Near the end of summer, all kids participating will join to run our FINAL MILE of the marathon together and all cross the same finish line.

What do the kids get?
- Weekly emails from a college coach
- Event t-shirt
- A summer program kids can be involved with!



Why participate in the I Run Kids Marathon?
The I Run Kids Marathon strives to get kids out exercising and teaching that exercise is fun as well. We also strive to get kids to keep reading over the summer. Just because school is out for the summer doesn't mean we should all stop learning. Reading over the summer goes a long way to beginning the new school year well.
