\n\t\tABOUT\n\t<\/h1>\n\t\t

\nRUNNING WITH PASSION<\/h3>\t\t\n\t\t\t

Virtual Kids Run was created to help kids (and adults) develop an active and healthy lifestyle. These days kids around the world are glued to their phones and video games, often sitting dormant for hours on end, this is not healthy and it has lead to a rising trend of unhealthy kids.<\/p>\n

By starting to run, kids can begin to develop a good active habit that keeps them strong and healthy. Believe it or not, running improves your health, boosts confidence, relieves stress, eliminates depression, helps lose weight, and can even prevent disease.<\/p>\n

Sometimes kids need a little nudge, some motivation or incentive to get into the activity of running. Virtual Kids Run provides that incentive by offering a series of cool collector medals to earn.<\/p>\n

Virtual Kids Run helps introduce the good healthy habit of running into kid’s lives, one that they will carry into the rest of their lives to stay healthy.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"sdm-kids-sq-01\"\n\t

Running is about more than just putting one foot in front of the other; it is about our lifestyle and who we are.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
