GO FAR RUNNING CLUB
Coaches: Kelly Holloway, Taylor Lewis, Denise Herman, Necolby Burt, Jennifer Kennedy
WHAT IS A GO FAR CLUB?
GO FAR is an 8- to 10-week running club for children that promotes physical activity, healthy eating, and good character. Through the GO FAR curriculum, coaches teach children to set and reach goals and complete a 5K road race. The GO FAR Curriculum is:
Time-tested. GO FAR now reaches more than 8,000 children in eight states annually. Most programs repeat season after season.
User-friendly. Teachers, coaches, parents, and volunteers can easily lead a group using the Coordinators Manual, complete with 2 semesters (36 lesson plans) plus optional activities.
Comprehensive. Each session incorporates lessons about nutrition, character education, and physical fitness.
Affordable. We keep costs to a minimum with a one-time start-up and curriculum fee and per-student race fees for shirts and medals.
Inclusive. Girls and boys of all abilities can successfully complete the training program. Families are also encouraged to join in their children’s training.
If interested, please fill out the interest survey form and a coach will be in touch with you soon.

CARLINE TIPS
You can begin lining up for the afternoon car line at 2:45 (12:45 on Wednesday) which is 30 minutes prior to 3:15 dismissal. DO NOT arrive before then. Anyone who lines up before that will be asked to leave campus and come back. We need the driveway to be open for safety reasons, emergency vehicles, and early check outs. When you begin lining up, please stop at the cones and leave the far left lane of the driveway open.
Students MUST enter the car on the passenger side and drivers and passengers MUST stay in the car. If you need to help them buckle, please park in the parking lot or pull around and park in the field in the front of the building.
Unbuckle students as you enter the car line so they are ready to hop out of the car quickly.
If you go to ‘overflow’ (just past zone 1), please turn on your hazards so cars behind you know you are stopping and they can go around.
