We have recently introduced the 'Run a mile' into our fitness lessons. Most year groups now run a mile once or twice a week. The children can run, run and walk or walk the distance. They all seem to be really enjoying taking part and challenge themselves to run further each session. Certainly year 4 complain if they don't think we have given them long enough.
Running regularly is a great way to keep fit and exercise helps children learn.
We will continue to do this over the summer term, the aim for the children is complete a half marathon distance (13.1 miles) and then a marathon distance (26.2 miles) over the coming weeks.
