presented by:

The Manitoba Runners’ Association (MRA) is proud to offer a Youth Running Series for runners 16 years of age and under (age calculated as of January 1st). The emphasis of this Series is to introduce and encourage participation in the sport of road-running for health, fun and friendship.

This series consists of races with distances of 5k and under. An MRA Membership is required to participate (more information is available here). A school can become a member for as little as $50.00 (every child in the school’s running club is then considered a member of the MRA once they fill out a membership form).

Qualifying for the MRA Youth Series awards is easy! Be 16 years of age and under, become an MRA Member and run a minimum of only 3 races!

Please don’t forget to visit the MRA table at all participating races to check in before you run.

Each Youth Series Member is placed in a participation level based on the number of races run and is awarded a prize for that level at the Year-End Awards Celebration based on the following qualifications;

Bronze: run 3 races minimum
Silver: run 6 races minimum
Gold: run 9 races minimum

Youth Series members aged 11-16 can also earn competitive points according to the table below. Any distance on the Youth Race Series Calendar is included.

NEW!!
A minimum of 3 events is required to be eligible for an award. The total points earned in the Youth Race Series is based on your 10 Best Races. If you have done more than 10, the lowest point scores from your total (those in RED) are removed. 

Points earned will be accumulated to determine the top three winners (male & female) in each of 3 age categories, who will be recognized for their achievement at the Year-End Awards Banquet. Although no prizes are awarded, members 10 years of age and under can keep track of their points for personal achievement.
