Mr Cuddihy’s 6th Class Running a Marathon
Mr Cuddihy’s 6th Class were running a marathon over 8 weeks, progressively getting longer. We started with 2 lengths of our school yards[Each length was 134 meters]
At the end we ran 12 lengths of our school yard with Ms. Kalisa’s Senior Infants, which was 1.6 km or a mile. When we finished our 8 week marathon we had run 42 km which was the distance from our school to UCD{University College Dublin}. While we were running our marathon, many of our classmates started to feel themselves improving in sports they were doing outside of school. Many people also said that they were gaining stamina and getting fitter. We were very sad when the marathon ended because it was very fun. However we had a real sense of achievement and we will be looking forward to doing another marathon again.
