Rally around running.

Basketball. Soccer. Tennis. Football. These major sports utilize various strengths, strategies, and skillsets. Running is essential to all of them—as is spirit, camaraderie, and team connection.

At Mascot Run, running isn’t just a common denominator. It’s a sport in and of itself—and there is a way to perform it that’s finessed, efficient, and injury-free. Our brand of running centers around the idea of a mascot: a beacon of spirit, togetherness, and shared enthusiasm that maintains lifelong bonds.

If your child learns to run with proper training and encouragement, it can become a supportive skillset, a healthy pastime, and a lifelong passion! Explore our diverse programs today.

Camps

Invite us to your day camp, sleep away camp, or sports camp, and we’ll show your campers just how much fun running can be.

During a weeklong, tri-phased program, Mascot Run coaches will help your campers learn and retain finessed running techniques. We’ll start by practicing fun drills that build basic skills. And yes, we’ll get goofy—kids 5-15 will relish their pirate kicks, shiny medals, and wacky relay races. Younger kids will develop basic motor skills with games like red light green light.

We’ll focus the second phase on refining these skills, and preparing for our grand finale: a competitive track-style race. Campers will have the thrilling experience of wearing numbers, starting off with a race “gun”, receiving shiny finisher’s medals, and feeling like true track stars.

Learning proper running skills will help campers improve in all athletic areas—and open their eyes to running as a sport to be celebrated.

Harness the fun of running for your campers. Get in touch.

Birthday Parties

Move over, bowling. Take a break, pizza party.

This year, get your child and friends up and moving with the newest party format—and fresh games.

Our birthday party program centers on games and relay races that build running techniques in fun, engaging ways. We can organize your child’s party right in your backyard, or in a rented park area if you live in NYC. 

From baton passing, to wheelbarrow racing, to exciting tag games like sharks and minnows, we offer an array of activities that will excite young children while acquainting them with the possibilities of running. Our very own mascot will attend the party, adding an extra layer of spirit and laughter to your fun, active party. 

Introducing your child to the fun side of running can open the door to new skills—and spark enduring interests. And we promise—it’ll be a blast! Get in touch for the birthday party of a lifetime.

Pre/Post Season Training

For athletes, staying in tip-top condition during off-season is key.

But when practice doesn’t start until right before the season, it can be difficult to remain in shape year-round. Off-season fitness may make or break your chance of landing on a competitive team or school roster.

Mascot Run Training Camp allows you to stay conditioned when your sport isn’t in session. You’ll hone critical running skills while cultivating team spirit. 

At these weeklong, intensive camps, middle and high school students will work closely with our team of experienced runners and coaches on drills, exercises, and workouts to prepare for the coming season. Fine-tuning your running technique will aid your ability to excel in your sport of choice. If that sport is running, all the better. 

Stay in shape at Mascot Run training camp—and have fun preparing for a season of wins. View our upcoming sessions—and sign up! 

School Programs

When kids are stimulated outside of the classroom, they can better engage in learning.

At Mascot Run, we use running as a tool to get kids moving—away from bad influences and towards healthy habits, greater focus, and promising futures. 

Mascot Run brings experienced coaches and runners to your school to engage students in educational running programs. As students fine-tune their techniques, they build a foundation of fitness that leads to a multitude of educational benefits. Discipline, confidence, team support—these are all advantages that will lead students to make better choices—and excel in life.

Contact us to learn more about bringing our classroom or assembly-based presentations and instructions, fun games, or our Spirit Run to your school.

Alumni/Rally Run

Close your eyes. Travel back 5, 10, 15 years. You’re at school—rallying for homecoming, cheering at the football game, tailgating—and feeling young and restless.

Mascot Run’s Rally Races are the back to school reunions you’ve longed for—and never knew could feel so amazing. Our 5Ks are marked by collegiate nostalgia at every mile post—a quick round of flip cup, a marching band symphony, heated college sports voting. We’re reconnecting you with your beloved alma mater—and the spirited rivalries that live on long after graduation. 

Our races are about sport, spirit, and education—with a bit of friendly competition. Our goal? To run amazing events, proudly wear team colors and gear—and encourage the next generation to study, play, learn to run properly—and embrace running’s amazing benefits as a sport. A portion of proceeds from Rally Races will be donated to education-focused charitable organizations and college scholarship funds.
