ON YOUR MARK!
The 2008 Harbor Half Marathon and Relay and HEB
are proud to present the first time ever Kid’s Marathon event for Corpus
Christi, Texas.
The Kid’s Marathon
is a great way to challenge kid’s to participate in a fitness program
that is fun and focused with a purpose. Exercise will not only benefit
the student physically but it is also a great emotional booster.
Participants will use a log sheet to keep track of each mile they run or
walk prior to the event. On the day of the Harbor Half Marathon and
Relay, October 18, 2008, the participants will meet at Whataburger Field to run/walk the final 1.2 miles of the total marathon!!
