Miles Completed Outside of School:
After School Meet Ups, Community Events and Races
Once the 100 Mile Club is up and running at a school, it is important to keep students engaged and motivated so that they keep striving to reach their goals. Students will earn the majority of their miles at school but can also earn miles at approved community meet ups , events and local venues.
IMPORTANT: It is ultimately the decision of each school or school coach to honor miles from any outside of school meet-up or event.
Many of our children have never attended a community event or any sort of group walk or run. Community events teach our kids that giving back and gathering to run together is FUN and feels really good. Participants can meet 100 milers from other schools and even see and run with their teachers!! It is a win-win situation.
We are grateful for your commitment to make our kids and communities healthy. Read the sections below and if you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact us.
