Littlefoot Registration
Geared towards our youngest runners, this program focuses on fun. Practices are built around games, relay races, and obstacle courses. Running is used as a backdrop, keeping the kids moving without them even realizing they are “running.” These kids have a blast!
We are so excited for our Littlefoot program! This is a 6-week program and will start May 6 and end on June 12. Practices will be held Mondays and Wednesdays from 4:30 to 5:20. We are so excited to have your child join us for our Spring session!
Cost: $30/child Ages: Kindergarten* through 5th grade. Location: Riverbend Park May 6th - May 22nd, Cascade Middle School May 29th to June 12th Days/Times: Mondays and Wednesdays, 4:30 to 5:20.
UPDATED LOCATION: This year we will be at two different locations for Littlefoot! Our young athletes will get a chance to experience the fun of running and funning at Riverbend Park for the first 3 weeks, and then we will transition to Cascade Middle School for the final three weeks. This gives us the opportunity to combine Littlefoot with our CORK Track and Field Program to begin introducing our youngest athletes to some fun track workouts. We are excited for this opportunity.

Coaches: Emily Abreu, Chassen Ortiz, Emily Fox, Erin Moran and Ashley Brush All coaches have passed USATF background checks and safe sport certification.
If you would like to help out as a coach please reach out to centraloregonrunningklub@gmail.com and let us know. You’ll need to have a background check and SafeSport training but CORK will reimburse you for the cost.
We will take attendance for each practice. Parents must sign in their child each session. Each participant must bring their own water bottle (no sharing)
Practice Cancellations: CORK will cancel organized runs and events due to unsafe running conditions for our young athletes. This includes when the Air Quality Index is above 100, temperatures are too hot/cold/rainy or terrain is unsafe due to ice/snow/rain. An email will be sent out by noon to update families should a practice need to be cancelled. We want our young athletes to stay healthy!
*If your child is not yet enrolled in Kindergarten, we must insist they wait to join Littlefoot! We’re happy they have the joy of running, but we don’t want to overwhelm our volunteer coaches and we want to provide a safe environment for the kids. The grade levels will be strictly enforced out of safety for all participants.
Please be advised, we are instituting a 3 Strike Rule: If your child is asked to sit out due to poor behavior three times, you will be asked not to bring that child back to Little Foot the remainder of the season.
