Base-line Times

Although the program is non-competitive you may want to have each child get a base-line time in a mile run so that they can judge improvement. It is best not to do this at the first meeting as the child may not yet be ready to cover a full mile. When you and the child feel ready, have them run, walk or do a combination for a full mile. Record the time for each child on the website and time them several times during the year. Record their times to see their improvement in percentages.
