Seymour Lil Sprinters 5K ClubTotalRunnerAthletics will be partnering again this spring with East Granby Parks & Recreation to offer Seymour students a unique running club opportunity. This program aims to introduce the sport of running to students in a way that promotes their physical, cognitive, and social needs while providing them an opportunity to participate in various races.

We will also encourage our young runners to adopt running as a part of a healthy lifestyle. The Sprinters 5K Club provides them with an exciting journey towards completing a Kid’s Run, or 5K in various races! Participants will build their running skills, learn proper techniques, and gain confidence. They will have the opportunity to showcase their progress by participating in local events (events are typically Saturday mornings and are optional and an additional cost). Key Features:
