Children ages four and under will complete one loop; children ages five and six will run two loops; and children ages seven and eight will run three loops. Every registered child will receive an official race t-shirt and participation medal. Morning activities will include arts and crafts, an interactive learning experience for all children, surprise visits from local mascots and information on ING DIRECT’s Planet Orange, a financial literacy Web site for youth. Two Planet Orange characters, Cedric and Amy, will serve as the honorary race directors for the ING DIRECT Tot Trot. ==============================================================

My almost 3 year old will be running his first race the day before the ING Georgia marathon. He loves to go running with me and rides in the running stroller most of the time but asks to get out and "run like daddy" some times so I let him get out and run/walk. I noticed on the web site that they have a children's race that is part of the marathon wekend, so I am going to sign him up. The course he will run is .2 of a mile. The picture below is from last fall at a local race. I guess I will have to get a shirt that says "Run Glenn Run".
