SEATTLE KIDS MARATHON

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2024

​

Race start time is 9:00 am at the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall, please arrive by 8:45

 

The first 25 miles are “honor” miles. Kids get the most from this experience if they earn these miles. Measure a safe, secure route, which will allow easy record keeping. A typical city block for example, is approximately 1/4 mile around. The track at the local high school is 1/4 mile around. You can even measure a route inside your home and run/walk it to reach the mileage goal. We encourage you to join your kids and make this a family event.

​

As your marathoner completes his/her goals, he/she can keep track of progress using the below trackers. 

​

Please present the “award certificates” at 5, 10, 15 and 20 miles. Special Read, Do-Right, Eat-Right and Run Certificates are also included and should be handed out for each goal reached. Make the awards presentation a special time. Recognition is important!

​

The final 1.2 miles will start at 9:00am on Saturday November 29, 2024 on the Seattle Center grounds. Kids and parents should arrive no later than 8:30am at the kids staging area located inside Seattle Center Exhibition Hall, where we will have pre-event activities.

 

Make sure to bring your tracking meters so we can post them at the event on Race Day!

 

Kids, parents and race officials will move from there to the Start Line together. 

 

Please Note! Parents/Coaches, you may run with your child, but it is not mandatory. Each child may have only one adult accompanying them. If you have a younger child in a stroller accompanying you, that child will have to be entered in the event and have a bib number to be on the course.
