The mini is a great way to introduce girls ages

6-12 to the world of running, or power walking. The fun run/walk allows the girls to participate and experience the joy of crossing a finish line in a safe and supportive environment. Girls get a finisher charm and post race food.

Parents are encouraged to let the girls run on their own, however you are welcome to run along with the minis, especially for parents with younger daughters.
