Dreamers in Watts Run a 5k with Girls on the Run

Our 4th grade Dreamers have had an amazing time participating with Girls on the Run this year! This past week, they participated in a mock 5k race to prepare for their REAL race coming up on May 18th.

To complete 3 miles on the field at our school in Watts, it takes 24 laps. As an incentive for completing the race, the girls earned a prize every 5 laps they ran–small prizes like stickers, their mustaches, headbands, and decorative eye rhinestones! Clearly, these girls ran a lot of laps!

Congrats girls! We’re looking forward to your big race in May! Run your heart out!
