6th Grade Triathlon Combines Fitness and Fun

Fitness and fun were the name of the game on Tuesday, May 10 at the annual Sixth Grade Triathlon. After three weeks of “training” during their physical education classes, the students hit the pool where they swam eight lengths (200 meters), then hopped on their bikes for a 1.75 mile ride, and finished up with a .75 mile run. The award at the end of the race was the pride and joy on the faces of the athletes, their teachers, and their parents for having completed the challenge.
