The club is open to all students in Grades 3 to 9. No experience is necessary, as the focus will be on participation. The training runs will follow a variety of 1 to 2 kilometre routes near the school. The runs will be supervised by staff members.
Parent volunteers are welcome to participate by walking or running with the students. The Running Club participants are encouraged to participate in the optional annual Leduc and District Athletics Association Cross-Country Meet during the day.
