This year's theme for the Elementary School is 

Fit for Life,

tailored to the District's Health and Wellness Policy.

One of the activities students in grades K - 4 will be participating in is a running program sponsored by the Foundation for Healthy Living.  Students will eventually, over the course of 10 weeks, run the distance of a

marathon - 26.2 miles.

The program kicked-off on Monday, October 2, 2006.

 

 

What is a Marathon?
In ancient Greece, Phidippedes ran from the plains of Marathon to Athens to report about the Persian War. That is where the marathon got its name. Thousands of years later, people still run, but now they do it for fun.  About half a million people run marathons every year! People who run marathons train a lot. Your body must be in good shape to run a marathon. A marathon is 26.2 miles.

 

Kids Are Runners, Too!
