Go for it Kristina. There are a lot of younger runners, especially at the 5K runs. Dylan Allain is becoming a regular and he's only 8 (you can see him in the start picture of the Proude's Shoe Run. He & his dad Randy joined Alex one day on his Tip-to-Tip Run last summer too). As well, check out the this run's 5K results, there was a large contingent of 11 & 12 year old pink shirt clad girls running, I believe they were from a new running club. They looked great and seemed to have a really good time despite the rain.
