To improve cardiovascular endurance and motivate students to improve their personal best travel time. To learn about different countries and their cultures.

Every Wednesday at our school is travel day in P.E. class. Students come to the travel field which is a tenth of a mile around to walk, jog, or run as many laps as they can. Students work up to a twenty minute run and are given a Popsicle stick for each lap they complete. All scores are recorded in a log book and each class is given an average for the day. A total is kept each week for the schools total daily run and total miles completed.
