Just because we think it’s very important to engage as many youth as possible, we publish Challenge Almere-Amsterdam’s latest press release about their free to join Kids Run.<\/p>\n
To enthuse youth even more about endurance sports and activate them to adopt a healthy lifestyle, Challenge Almere-Amsterdam is introducing a free Kids Run this year. On Friday afternoon, September 8, children up to 12 years old can participate in a 500 meter Run, 1000 meter Run or 2000 meter Run.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cGetting kids excited about endurance sports: that\u2019s something we like to achieve at Challenge Almere-Amsterdam. This does not necessarily mean all kids need to swim, bike and run and our Kids Run \u2013 in 2023 new added to our race schedule \u2013 was created with this idea in mind. The Kids Run will run alongside the already existing and ever-popular Junior Challenge. With our Junior Challenge, hundreds of children are participating in a short-distance triathlon every year, but with the Kids Run, it\u2019s \u2018only\u2019 about running. To keep the Kids Run accessible, we have chosen to make the Challenge Almere-Amsterdam Kids Run free of charge. This way everyone can participate,\u201d explains Event Director Jefry Visser.<\/em><\/p>\n
