Longfellow’s Running Club meets every morning before school, from 8:35 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. It’s a great way for students to wake up, move their bodies, and ease into the school day feeling focused and energized.
Each student receives a mileage card to track their laps. Every time a lap is completed around the track, their card gets scanned.
We celebrate students as they reach milestones, including:
5 miles (monthly recognition)
26.2 miles (Marathon)
50 miles
78.6 miles (Triple Crown)
100 miles
135 miles (Elite Runners)
200+ miles (Ultra Team)
These achievements are recognized by peers and the school community—helping motivate students to keep running and set new goals.
If you’re available in the mornings, we’d love your help scanning mileage cards and cheering on our students. Even one morning a week makes a big difference.
