ABOUT YOUTH TRACK
The Foot Traffic Youth Track & Run Program is brought to you in part by Foot Traffic and Portland Parks and Recreation and other sponsors and partners. It is open to all students, grade 2-8. The focus is on introductory workout and introductory track skills for all athletes, with workouts tailored to the athletic ability of the different age groups. A BIG emphasis on FUN and EDUCATION! Our program is designed primarily as an introduction to the sport rather than intense, daily workouts. Coaches are directed to provide guidance on workout principles in a relaxed and fun environment.
