Dear Adults and Children,
It’s time to sign up for the 2nd annual Kids Marathon! The goal of this program is to provide families with an opportunity to incorporate healthy habits into their lifestyle. It’s simple and it’s fun!
The distance of a marathon is 26.2 miles. Of course you don’t have to run the distance all at once! This is how it works. It’s simple:
You will have 5 weeks to complete 25 miles of walking and/or running. You will run and/or walk your last 1.2 miles during the Erie Marathon at beautiful Presque Isle State Park on Sunday, September 12th 2004. All participants WHO COMPLETE THE PROGRAM will receive a t-shirt and a finisher’s medal.
After you sign up, you will receive a letter in the mail in the middle of July with more specific instructions from me. Included in this letter will be a chart for you to log your miles that you walked/ran during the 5 week period and dates the Kids Marathon children and families can get together at Frontier State Park to meet with other children and listen to speakers discuss important healthy topics.
The Erie Marathon will be held this year on Sunday, September 12th, 2004. That means you will begin your program on Sunday, August 8th. If you are interested in participating, please send this application and registration fee to me by July 10th. The fee is $10.00.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call or email me. My work number is 835-5800, my home number is 866-1539.
