Healthy Kids Running Series Spring 2026 - Wichita, KS

The Healthy Kids Running Series Spring in Wichita, KS offers a five-week running program for children in Pre-K through 8th grade. Races are held weekly during the spring, with distances tailored to age groups rather than a single distance for all participants. Younger runners can compete in 50- and 75-yard dashes, while older or more experienced participants have the option of a quarter mile, half mile, or one mile race. Participants accumulate points for each race completed, with scoring based on their finishing position, encouraging consistent participation throughout the series. The registration fee covers all five weeks and includes weekly bibs, a participant shirt, a finisher medal, and items from sponsors. The series also features a Challenger Division, a 75-yard adaptive race designed for children with disabilities or special needs, allowing parents, siblings, and friends to run alongside participants for encouragement.
