On November 12th, all the 5th & 6th classes went to Morton Stadium in Santry to take part in the MarathonKids final run. Since September, we have been taking part in MarathonKids running in school on an almost daily basis, so that by the time we finished our run in Morton Stadium, we had run an accumulated 26 miles - the same distance as a marathon! Since September, we have also been learning about the benefits of exercising & eating healthily, getting enough sleep and how to look after our minds & bodies.
Upon completing the final part of the run in the stadium, we all felt a sense of achievement as we crossed the finishing line. We each got a medal and a t-shirt to mark our participation.
We want to keep up the good habits we developed!
