Parent session

Parents run too.

The Parent Session is built for mothers and fathers who want to be part of the action — not just spectators. Lace up, wear your bib, and cross the finish line hand-in-hand with your child.

  • Separate parent registration with your own event T-shirt and bib.
  • Run alongside your child in the 2–3 years family category, or cheer them on in the 4–10 years run.
  • Share the joy, the medal moment, and a memory that lasts beyond the finish line.

Our motive

“Every child, every ability, every background — welcome at the start line.

Kidathon is more than a run. It's a small act of a bigger belief: that childhood joy should be shared, and that community is built one cheering parent, one grinning kid, one finish line at a time.

Good to know

Parent questions, answered.

Who can participate?+

Any child between 2 and 10 years, accompanied by a parent or guardian. Siblings and cousins welcome!

Is there a registration fee?+

Yes — Child registration is ₹499 and Parent registration is ₹799. Registration is required so we can plan medals, snacks, T-shirts and safety.

How long is the run?+

Distances are age-appropriate and non-competitive: 2–4 yrs run 100 m, 4–6 yrs run 200 m, 7–9 yrs run 400 m, and 10 yrs run 500 m. It's about smiles at the finish, not the stopwatch.

What should we bring?+

Comfortable clothes, water, and a big smile. Everything else — bib, medal, memories — we've got you.

Do parents need to register too?+

No — parents only need to register if they want to run in the event. Every child must be accompanied by a parent, but the parent only needs a separate registration (with T-shirt and bib) if they plan to participate.

Are T-shirts included?+

Yes — every child and registered parent gets an event T-shirt. Please select the right size during registration.

What time should we reach?+

Plan to arrive by 7:30 AM so you have time to collect your bib and T-shirt before the 8:00 AM start.

Can I register multiple children?+

Absolutely. Fill one child registration form per kid. You can use the same parent contact details for each.

What happens after I register?+

You'll receive a confirmation email with your registration details, payment instructions, and a link to the WhatsApp updates channel.

Is the event safe for kids with special needs?+

Yes. Inclusivity is at the heart of Kidathon. We have volunteers, hydration stations, and a buddy-parent system to support every child.

Can I cancel or get a refund?+

Registrations are non-refundable. If you cannot attend, please let us know so we can plan resources accordingly.
