Congratulations to our series’ volunteers and all the other runners who participated in the 50th !

It won’t be long before we’re cheering on our very own runners in this race!

Volunteers are the singular most important resource in the success of the Healthy Kids Running Series and you’ll be hard pressed to find two better than Nadia and Iris.

Their dedication and commitment to the young runners and families of our Kenilworth-Anacostia is evident week after week where you’ll find them checking participants in and making sure they are celebrated as they cross the finish line!

We’d love to have you join us this season as a volunteer in whatever capacity you can support! Our season starts this Sunday! Hope to see you there!
