Born To Run

Georgetown Fit

GISD has joined up with Run Tex to provide this program free to all Georgetown Elementary students.  They will be receiving a free shirt sometime near the beginning of the program.  The program consists of a 12 week unit on fitness and there will be a 5K run at the end of the program that anyone can attend but it will cost and those who participate will receive a T-Shirt.  We began the program here at Carver on December 1st.  Our PTA has also joined in the effort and will provide parents with information on the program to follow along at home with your child.  We will be posting more information as time goes on.  We would like to thank Sunshine Webster, Jackie Holcomb, and Michelle Tate for their hard work in getting this program started.

Event Location

The event will start and end at the Old Stadium, San Gabriel Park with the 5K run/walk winding through the park. The Born to Run 1K will take place inside on the old stadium track.

 

This is much more than a race – it’s a community event!
