Kick Off Celebration

October 3, 2009

UT Mike Myers Track and Field Stadium

11:00 am
On Saturday, Oct 3rd, thousands of Central Texas area K-5^th grade school children and parents ceremonially begin running/walking 26.2 miles in increments of ¼ to ½ mile at a time over six months, coloring in their Marathon Kids Running Logs©.  They also are challenged to eat 26.2 days a month of 5-a-day fruits and veggies, coloring in their "Fuel Logs". Together in a free, glorious, ceremonial Kick Off Celebration, they will start their first mile of their marathon, with other Central Texas families and University of Texas Athletes.

 

 

**We will track all walking/running miles in PE classes. Check the class mileage logs posted outside of the gym for our progress.  Last year Old Town had 100% participation in the Marathon Kids Running Program. Way to go Texans!!! Let's do it again this year!!!
