Mile Run!!

Over the course of the next week we will be preparing for and completing the mile run in P.E class.  Students in grades K-2 will run the Half mile, but students in grades 3-6 will run the full Mile.  The mile run is not designed to be torture.  Instead, it is meant to be a challenge for students of all ability levels.   This is a personal challenge and not a competition with others students in the class or grade level.  When it comes to Mile Run day here are a couple of helpful hints...

1.  Wear clothing suitable for jogging.  i.e. shorts, sweats, windpants, t-shirts long or short sleeve.

2.  Eat breakfast!  Be careful not to eat too much for breakfast, but a bowl of cereal and juice or a couple pieces of toasts and juice are just a couple of ideas.

3.  Bring a positive attitude and do your best!  Know, that time is how we measure the mile run, but ultimately it is about finishing the mile while giving your best effort.
