Trail Blazers is a trail running adventure for kids in 2nd–5th grades who love to move, explore, and try new things. Whether they’re fast runners or happy joggers, kids are encouraged to challenge themselves while building confidence, grit, and a love for being outside.

Each week, Trail Blazers head out on a 2–3 mile run on a brand-new trail, winding through forests, beaches, and other wild places. Trained coaches run right alongside the kids to keep everyone safe, cheer them on, and make sure the fun never stops, all while also teaching good trail manners.

The group meets at school and then adventures off to a different trail each week, discovering new places, making friends, and getting a little dirty along the way. Kids learn Leave No Trace principles by respecting wildlife, staying on the trail, and helping clean up the places they explore. Expect muddy shoes, big smiles, teamwork, and lots of outdoor fun as Trail Blazers grow into confident explorers and caring stewards of the outdoors
