About the Kids on the Run 2026-2027

This is a series of short runs for elementary-age kids, open to school running clubs and individual children. The races move around Shreveport across the school year, rotating through venues like a skate park along the riverfront, a stadium, and a university recreational field. Each location gives the course a different feel, and the competition is structured so clubs earn points across the whole series.

Packet pickup happens at Sportspectrum on Fern Avenue in the days before the first race, with race-site pickup available on each race day until shortly before the start. Each child gets a single bib with a chip that carries through every race in the series, so hold onto it. Schools picking up packets for larger groups should coordinate by email in advance.

Common Questions About the Kids on the Run 2026-2027

Will I finish last at the Kids on the Run 2026-2027?

Almost certainly not. Half the 1 Miles field finished slower than 11:16, and the last recorded finisher came in around 26:28, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Kids on the Run 2026-2027 a good first 1 Miles?

A field of 464 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Kids on the Run 2026-2027?

The 1 Miles winner ran 6:29 while the median finisher took 11:16. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
