Southfield Fun Run Gets Kids Excited About Exercise
(Crystal Proxmire, June 18, 2014)
Tis the season for marathons, relays and runs. But on June 14 in Southfield there was one especially for young people to get out and get excited about exercise.
The first annual Mayor’s 3K Children’s Fun Run brought youth aged 8-12 to Inglenook Park, and was coordinated by Mayor Brenda Lawerence and Physically Fit 4 Hoops. The run was free and participants got to run with the Mayor and got a tee shirt from the race.
Physically Fit 4 Hoops is a program that gets kids in the Detroit area in shape and excited about playing basketball. More info can be found at https://www.facebook.com/physicallyfit4hoops.
