Parmenter 5K - photo essay

The Parmenter School was the site for their 4th Annual Run for All Ages on Sunday, Jun 10. Great sunshine greeted all the runners and supporters.



The Parmenter Panda kept an eye on what was happening



Attached to some of the light poles or parking signs were a series of student work addressing the question: What is fun about running?



As a life long runner, there is much fun in running



Good healthy habits can form around regular exercise



You learn to plan ahead, you learn to follow the curve



You learn that you CAN do it, you need to take the first step to try



Consider racing against yourself, use the others on the course for inspiration or incentive



Ultimately, it is all up to you. Starting and finishing is a worthy reward



Almost 300 runners and walkers lined up for the start



Thanks especially to all the sponsors and volunteers who put the race on; thank you!
