Young people can do amazing things, including completing a 5k. Runners of nearly every fitness level can take part in this popular type of foot race. Some 5k races are competitive, with medals or prizes given to the people who finish first. Other 5k events are held just for fun, or to raise money for charity. For people new to running, training for a 5k usually involves working their way up from walking to running. But even more experienced athletes must follow a plan to get the most out of this type of event. What runners eat and wear, for example, can affect their success on race day. Part of the Yes, You Can! series, Run a 5k is a guide for young people thinking about signing up to run their first 5k.
