Area fun runs for little kids? (Age 6)

[Anonymous]

My son just loves to run. I'm not a runner, so I don't know much about organized activities for kids. Are there fun runs coming up that you recommend? TIA

I can't recommend this, as we haven't done it but it is part of the Rock and Roll marathon/ half in March. Looks like the kids' mile is on Thursday.

The Kids Marathon at the Shamrock Half down in VA Beach is fun.

Locally, there are lots of races with kids' races attached. As a 6yr old, he probably can manage up to a 1-miler.
Check out runwashington.com
I'm heading out the door, but will post back later with some specifics.

What state/county are you in?

Most of the runs are in the morning. You'd want to pick something closer to home.
