Greetings Kids' Marathon Group Leaders & Friends,

The Flying Pig's famous February cousin, the Groundhog, announced 6 more weeks of winter. This makes February the perfect time to begin logging miles either inside or out. For activities you can do indoors that count towards your Hog Log, check out the Wellness Mile Chart on the group leader page of our website! 

But the more important report, regardless of the weather is that we have 13 weeks until Flying Pig Marathon Weekend, including the Kids' Marathon 26th Mile. Nothing will cast a "shadow" on the 20th Anniversary of the Flying Pig Marathon this year!! So GET REGISTERED now! Many of our events are selling out this year (the full marathon is already FULL).

Official Dietitian

Nutrition with Ashley   


Meet the official dietitian of the Flying Pig Marathon, Ashley Meuser! This year, Ashley put together the Nutrition Challenge Coordinator Packet which combines 20 nutrition tips and recipes that will help your group meet their nutrition goals. For additional tips and to learn more information about Ashley and her background in nutrition, visit the Nutrition Tips page on our website. 

Mascot Visits 

If you're struggling to increase participation in your group or keep your members motivated during the Winter months, we can help! Reserve a visit with our program coordinator and mascot. The kids will love having the mascot to high five and cheer them on as they log their miles. To reserve a visit from our mascot, please email [email protected] with two dates/times that would work for your group. While we can't guarantee that the mascot can visit each group, we will try our best to accommodate each request.

Our website has terrific resources to help you reach mileage, nutrition, and health goals. Visit our Kids' Marathon Event Page  for additional materials. Let us know how we can help you and your group and as always BE SMART, EAT WELL and MOVE MORE !
