Illinois Valley Striders has a great summer program to encourage physical exercise and a love of running. Kids can choose 1/4, 1/2 or 1 mile course, they are timed, and they get ribbons at the end. All for $2 a week. We took the boys last week and it was a lot of fun. Jack was crying at the end of his 1/4 mile -- not because he was tired of running, but because he wanted to play on the locked playground! Fortunately, cookies and juice make everything better. And in Brian Regan spirit..... you get a whole cookie for 1/4 mile. So they'd rather do 1/4 mile.
