The NN Kids Runs start in the center of Rotterdam. You’ll run your race, cheered on by the many spectators. You’ll finish under the same finish arch as the marathon runners. A well-deserved medal is also waiting for you here!
In which NN Kids Run will you participate?
NN Kids run 1 km
Anyone between the ages of 6 and 10 can participate in the NN Kids Run 1 km. You start in a wave with other children of your age.
It is possible to participate in this competition as a parent or supervisor. You can order a coach number for this when registering the child. As a coach you do not receive a medal.
NN Kids run 2,5 km
You can participate in the NN Kids Run 2.5 km if you’re between 7 and 15 years old. You start in a wave with your peers.
Run against cancer
Purchase your bib number via NN Marathon Rotterdam and create a campaign page at KWF. With your own Run Against Cancer campaign page, fundraising is easier than you think. Every euro counts! Will you raise 500 euro or more? Then you will receive the unique Run Against Cancer shirt. Ofcourse, KWF supports you in collecting donations, with tips, tricks and great examples of activists who came before you.
EXTRA INFO
The group-up corner is located on Stadhuisplein (next to the finish line). There, group-up organizes various free, fun, and surprising activities. All children, young people and parents are welcome!
Your child lost? Come to the gro-up corner
If you lose sight of each other on Coolsingel, you can go to the group corner. They will look after lost children during the NN Kids Run until they and their parents or guardians are reunited.
The start and finish of the NN Kids Runs is on the Coolsingel.
The NN Kids Runs 1 km starts in waves A to E and the NN Kids Runs 2.5 km in A and B. Use the entrance to the starting area (shown on the bib number) as indicated on the map. The letter corresponds to the signs at the start. Make sure you are in the starting area at least 15 minutes in advance.
After the finish, we ask you to continue walking to where you will receive your medal and drinks.
The exits after the finish of the NN Kids runs are divided into two colors and shapes that correspond with the colors on the start numbers and wristbands. Parents and supervisors can wait for the children at the correct exit. Individually registered participants should use the exit with the sun. Participants from schools and clubs should use the exit with the little house. Use these landmarks to find each other after the finish.
