The 3rd edition of the Chennai Kidathon was held at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on August 7, 2016. About 2,200 enthusiastic children took part in the various running distances of 400m, 800m, 1600m and 2000m. Parents were allowed to run with the children only in the 400m category. The races were held throughout the day from 3pm to 9pm.
All participants were called an hour in advance to get warmed up by the lively aerobic session conducted by Zorba. There were no winners in the races and all participants received medals and certificates. Food as well as snacks were available at the venue and there were a number of game stalls.
The event was enjoyed by both parents and children alike and many were eager for the next edition.
