Running Club for 4/29

Due to inclement weather will be canceling our running club. 

From WRAL -- Mostly cloudy, windy and very warm with showers and storms possible this afternoon and evening. Highs in the upper 70s-mid 80s. That stationary frontal boundary that was upon the area yesterday is still over us today. This feature will help lend any storms that develop this afternoon to take on some rotation and hence perhaps form a tornado. We do also have the potential for some large hail and some heavy rainfall that could prompt flash flooding. Tomorrow we may have a greater focus of strong to severe storms as the actual cold front arrives.

Third Running Club

We are excited about having our third running club of the spring season tomorrow.  We will be meeting at the track at 3:45.  Please be sure to bring appropriate clothes, water, and some energy. We will be dividing up into groups to work on the students fitness goals.

First Running Club

We had a great turn out for our first running club. We had forty-nine students and nine adults.  We worked on intervals and were able to run/walk for fifteen minutes and then complete three relays around the school.  The best part of the running club for me was hearing the runners' goals.

• "be a faster runner"
• "Beat my older brother running"
• "be able to run longer without stopping"
• "be the best runner"

Looking forward to meeting these great goals!  See you all on April 9th.
