LAFAYETTE CHILDREN'S CLINIC
KIDS EVENTS
Makin' Macon Fit has always emphasized kids and fitness. This was one of the
Fitness Council's guiding principles when they originally started the event in
1994. This is our 13th year and the emphasis on children still remains. We have
events for all ages and interests. Kids pay one price and do any or all of the
categories. The events (except for the fun run) are held at the same time, so
the kids simply move from event to event. The kid's fun run is held at 10:00 so
that everyone that wants to run has the opportunity.
JUNIOR BIKE RODEO: The rodeo is held on a closed course at the Macon County
Jr. High. Kids learn bike-handling skills as they negotiate cones and other
obstacles along their routes.
OBSTACLE COURSE: Run through, around and over a series of obstacles. It's you
against the clock! Test yourself and your friends’ ability to negotiate the
course. Always a favorite.
KID'S FUN RUN: This event is run as a race.
It starts at 10:00 a.m. Kids are divided into age groups
and see who can complete a ¼ mile run the fastest. The run is held on the Macon
County High School track which is next to the other events. Parents can watch
the entire event! Everyone gets a prize, but the fastest boy and girl in each
grade get a trophy.
BOUNCY TENT: Kids of all ages get to
jump, bounce and play FOR FREE! This is a nice
break, especially for the smaller kids.
