Program Description
Rockstar Runners is more than just a running program—it’s an empowering experience where participants build confidence, develop life skills, and form lasting friendships.
Over the course of 5 weeks (10 practices), caring coaches guide engaging activities, group discussions, and fun physical challenges. Local volunteer coaches support each session.
Running Buddies
By the second week, participants will be asked to choose a Running Buddy to run with them. This allows time for buddies to prepare and helps runners find their paired “Happy Pace.”
Running Buddies must be 16+ years old and may be a parent/guardian, family member, neighbor, teacher, Beast Mode coach, or another trusted adult.
