Approximately
two dozen students from Macdonough School joined the ING Run for Something Better "Final
Mile" event on Tuesday, October 8, at Rentschler Field. Our
students joined 3,000 from around the Greater Hartford area to celebrate
crossing the finish line of the final mile in their marathon or half marathon
in-school training. The event, hosted by the Hartford Marathon Foundation and ING, encouraged students to get active and recognized their efforts with a celebratory finish line experience complete with music, announcers and cheering spectators. Students earned a commemorative finisher's medal, enjoyed the World of Fitness Expo with games, activities and demonstrations and received healthy snacks and an event T-shirt.
