Do you like to run?
Walk?
Interact with students and teachers you haven't seen all week?
Need a good place to sweat off the stress from your week?
Or you just happen look good in orange?
Perhaps Barrett Runners is the answer?
Barrett Runners is a running and walking group for teachers, parents, and 3-4-5th grade students. Each year over 100 students and 25 teachers/parents sign up to participate. Teachers and parents pair up with 1-4 students to walk, walk/run, or run 2-3 miles in the Barrett neighborhood and in Lubber Run Park. Teachers/parents work with students to mentor and improve pace and enthusiasm each week. Good sportsmanship is expected, inappropriate behavior is not tolerated.
Barrett Runners will begin on Friday, October 12. We will meet 3:10 - 4:00 on Fridays after school throughout the school year with a break during the colder months.
What do teachers/parents need to do? Let John know by responding via email if you are interested in running or walking with them this year or if you need further information about Barrett Runners.
What should you send to John?
1. Are you are a runner, run/walker, or walker?
2. What level of commitment: Most every week or occasionally?
3. What is your shirt size?
***Parents- Please contact John via email (johns.stewart@apsva.us) before coming on Fridays so he can explain more about Barrett Runners and send you the volunteer permission forms.
Please let John know if you have any questions.
Please let John know if you are interested in joining.
It is a great way to end your school week! (of course once it gets a little cooler and of course after this first month is over!)
