Cardio Kidz Spring Running Series – Palatine, IL 2026

SPRINT into Spring! Join me on the TRACK Sundays at Winston Campus in Palatine for our 3-week Spring Running Series! In addition to the physical benefits of running, the program aims to build social-emotional skills. The Cardio Kidz environment is great for the seasoned runner and also those who may never run before. We will focus on the affirmation DETERMINED this spring in age-appropriate discussions before each race and will track weekly progress to promote goal setting and increase self-confidence. The emphasis of this series is on self-improvement vs. competition with others. We realize that accomplishments look different for everyone, and it is our goal for every participant to make big strides and have FUN while doing so! Races that are offered are as follows: 50-Yard Dash: Ages 2 & 3 100-Yard Dash: Preschool 4 & 5 1/4 Mile (400 m): Grades Kindergarten-8th. *Heats will be separated by age. *This race will be timed; results will be sent in a post-race email.
