The West Australian Marathon Club joined the national Kids Marathon Series in 2008.

It has been a great success and we are looking forward to the Perth Kids Marathon continuing to grow bigger and bigger each year. It has a unique format that allows kids, kindergarten through high school to run a marathon... one kilometre at a time. It will be held in conjunction with the annual Perth Marathon in June.

All children are encouraged to commence a training program in April/May/June and start logging their kilometres. The aim is to run the first 40km of the marathon distance over a number of weeks in the child’s own time, then on marathon day complete the final 2.195km at the Perth Marathon.

This is a great opportunity for children of school age to start an exercise program that will continue over a number of weeks and culminate in the completion of a “marathon”.
