Arizona: KiDSROCK

Kids, Get Ready to Rock!

Saturday, January 19, 2013
NEW LOCATION! - Tempe Beach Park, Tempe, AZ
Time: 9:00 am

Finishing a marathon is child’s play with KiDS ROCK Arizona – a one-mile fun run for children in grades K – 6. This non-competitive, non-timed event is all about having fun and making it to the finish line.

Participants can become full marathon finishers by completing a 25.2-mile training program prior to January 19th or they can just run, walk or jog the one-mile course on race day. Every child is a winner and will be rewarded with an official race number, T-shirt, goodie bag, and colorful medal – just for finishing!

Run with your Friends!

School/Team registration is now open.  There is no fee to be a team, however you need a minimum of 10 registered participants.  Being an official KiDS ROCK Team allows your team name to be listed in our registration system and allows you to pick-up your student’s race numbers and t-shirts.  Please complete the online Intent To Form a Team Application.
