P.E. Class this week, February 4 to February 8, 2013

I would like to remind parents to send your children dressed in an appropriate way for the days that they have P.E. class:

-  No dresses for the girls

-  No jeans

-  No crocks

-  No sandals

-  No boots

Children who are not wearing the appropriate clothing will not be allowed to participate in P.E. class.

100 Beginner Running Tips

Racing Tips

1.  Race day is not the day to try new shoes, eat new foods, or wear brand new clothing.

2.Do not try a marathon as your first race.

3.For races longer than 5k start out slower than you think you should.

4.If you conserve your energy during the first half of a race, you can finish strong.

5.When you pick up drinking cups at aid stations, squeeze gently so it folds slightly and is easier to drink from it while you are moving.

6.A plastic garbage on race day is a very fashionable cheap disposable raincoat.
