Spring Running Club 3/29/16

Today we started our spring season of running club! The kids had so much fun trying out all sorts of activities. We participated in a large group 1/2 mile run through the trails around the school. We also worked on some strength exercises and sprinting on the track! 

Each week, we will choose 2 students who demonstrate our "Character Trait of the Week." Today, our trait was optimism/ having a positive attitude. Congratulations to our two winners! Zack is a 4th grade student and Parker is a 3rd grade student. Both boys showed great support for their team mates and had a smile on their face the entire time. Way to go!

Please see the link below to sign up for the Angels Among Us 5k in Durham for Brain Cancer Research on April 23rd! We would love for all running club families to participate in this 5k with us as it benefits a charity that is so close to our hearts here at Brassfield.

This week, the runners worked on distance and strength. We split into small groups and focused on endurance exercises! The students are getting ready for our longest time trial yet, a 2 mile run! We will be doing this in a few weeks.

Congratulations to our award winners this week! 5th grader, Payton, and 3rd grader, Ella, won the award for being unselfish this week. They are always caught cheering on their teammates and thinking of others before they think of themselves. Way to go!
