• The Covenant Health and the Knoxville Marathon are sponsoring a one mile Kids Run starting at the World's Fair Park on Saturday, April 2nd at 6:00 pm.

• On that day, the children will run their last mile together and finish on the 50-yard-line at Neyland Stadium, the same finish line that athletes will use the next day for the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon.

• Registration for the one-mile fun run can be found online at knoxvillemarathon.com or with Mrs. Stepp at the Family Science Night Thursday, February 24th.

• Walking Track on the elementary playground is under construction.  Five laps around the track equals a mile.  We do not have a completion date right now because of the winter weather and funding.  We are seeking sponsors and/or workers to help construct the track.  If you know of someone or a company that would help us complete the track please contact Mr. vineyard.

• Coach Lakin's weight training classes have begun in the auditorium from 3:30-4:30 on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday .  The class was designed to strengthen the track team but many other students and staff members are enjoying the class. 

• The Big Gym is open at 7:15 a.m. to walk or jog with Coach Stepp.

• The school has an exercise room for RSS staff.  It has two treadmills, a stair stepper, a stationary bicycle, and a bow-flex!

• Pound for Pound Challenge is in conjunction with the Second Harvest Food Bank, the same organization that sponsors our Weekend Backpack program.  For every pound you pledge to lose, they will donate 11¢ to Feeding America® — enough to secure one pound of groceries on behalf of local food banks.
