37th Annual Oak Grove Fun Run goes Virtual

The highly anticipated  VIRTUAL Fun Run is about to begin!
 
 
We may not be able to get together in person as a school....but we can still unite together virtually!
 
Go outside and let's do this! (NOTE - if you prefer, you can go the distance on treadmills too.....whatever gets you up and moving!)

Between April 1st through April 24th, complete one or both of the Fun Run events together as a family. PLEASE REMEMBER TO ADHERE TO THE RECOMMENDED 6 FEET SOCIAL DISTANCING IF YOU HEAD OUTDOORS.

Record your results through Google Form (yes, sorry....another Google Form) - LINK BELOW.
 
ONE FORM PER FAMILY.

Results to be tallied by April 30th.

Shirt distribution will be a little tricky, but where there's a will there's a way! Stay tuned on those logistics!

GRADE LEVEL RACES:
Take your stopwatch and some chalk, tape, or even an old pair of shoes. Mark out the "required" distance and RUN!! Don't forget to time yourself!! Enter your time in the google form (link below).

5th Grade - 4 laps (1600 meters) or 1 mile
4th Grade - 4 laps (1600 meters) or 1 mile
3rd Grade - 3 laps (1200 meters) or 3/4 mile
2nd Grade - 2 laps (800 meters) or 1/2 mile
1st Grade - 1 lap (400 meters) or 1/4 mile
Kindergarten - 1 lap (400 meters) or 1/4 mile
PK - 1/2 lap (200 meters or ~220 yards)

CREATE-A-TRAIL RUN:
As a family, create a trail run course of your choice. The OGE trail run was going to be about 2 miles, but you can make it any length you want....the goal now is to make your own cool new course (road or off-road)...and extra bonus points for creativity....can you make a cat shaped course? How about an eagle?

Map out your course via any method (MapMyRun, GoogleMap, free hand drawing), run it, and then submit the course via the google form (link below).
 
AND HERE'S THE LINK TO RECORD YOUR RESULTS!!!!
