Fort Rucker Youth Sports and Fitness is offering an opportunity for youth to achieve something that most adults can't do, to spend time with friends chatting and exercising and to be a part of a national program featured on Facebook, Youtube and Twitter. What is you might ask? It's our Ready, Set, Run! program. This is an opportunity for youth, ages 8-13 years old, to be a part of a national running program that focuses on character-development and physical training for a 5k run. The program equips youth with the physical training and goal-setting mentality needed to accomplish their running goals. Issues like enhancing confidence and self-esteem, respecting authority, dealing with peer pressure and fueling their bodies through proper nutrition are covered during the 12 week session. Above all, the youth have a blast seeing what they are capable of achieving. The youth will participate in three runs throughout the 12 week session. Cost is $45 and registration is July 1 - 31. The season will be August 7 - October 28. All of the runs will be here on Fort Rucker. For more information please contact the Youth Sports Department at +1 (334)255-2254 or +1 (334)255-2257.
