Florence Adler METCO 5k Race will be held Saturday, May 7

METCO Florence Adler Fundraiser: On Saturday 7 May, the Wayland METCO Program will host The Florence Adler METCO Cup 5k Race. Runner, walkers and unicyclists are welcome. The late Florence Adler was a staunch supporter of the Wayland METCO program and believed in an increased awareness of diversity and the value of integration in our schools. The proceeds from this race will benefit the program, and you get yourself in shape and practice wellness, so it's a win-win situation for all on this great day. You'll hear more about the race in the coming weeks. In themeantime, if you want to begin preparing, here is a link to a training plan to prepare you to run a 5k in 9 weeks, courtesy of Ms. Pam Riddle.  It's called the Couch-to-5k Plan. It starts off with intervals of jogging and walking, and progressively increases time and distance over the 9 week period. Week 1 of training is set to begin today, Monday 7 March. We have 3 treadmills in the wellness center that are available for faculty use. Let us know if you have any questions!
