As a coach, you have the option to invite parents to follow their child's progress and/or submit miles from home to you.

If you include a parent email when you add participants, they receive an email invitation to create their Marathon Kids parent account that connects them to their child(ren).

You as coach set the parent permissions when you choose the club type.

Here's a quick peek at a parent account. This parent belongs to a Hybrid Person Club Type.

  • If you have selected In Person Club Type, the parent sees a message across the "Log Miles Tile" that says this feature has been disabled.
