Sad - A - Thon

We are having a jog-a-thon in May and so the other EA and I decided to get the kids ready. She has been a runner off and on her whole life, so we thought it would be fun for the kids and us to run off some energy outside. It was a pretty sad scene. I thought for sure that the five-year-olds would show me up, but over half of them couldn't even run one freakin' lap! I was amazed. They were also amazed by me.

Wow! Miss. K! You can run? I've never seen a teacher run!


I ran with the kids who could run and we managed to run 3 laps before it was time to go in. I say we require television viewing to be treadmill powered for anyone under the age of 18.

The weather is changing. It should be mid 70s and sunny this weekend. I'm ready! It is overcast right now and I'm heading out for a few laps at the middle school to train.

Anyone up for donating money for each lap I complete?

treadmill powered tv's are needed for people over the age of 18, as well....but yes it would be nice to start them young. :)
