Marathon Kids

All the children in fifth class have just completed the Marathon Kids Ireland programme, which was sponsored by S.D.C.C and Fingal County Council. Over the course of nine weeks the children ran four days each week. The distance covered increased every week and the children ran their final mile in Morton Stadium in Santry. Over the course of the programme the children ran a full 26.2 miles (marathon distance). It was a fantastic event and every child enjoyed participating. There was also a huge improvement in the fitness of all participants.
