SMCC RUN SQUAD HAS MOVED TO CANVAS!

Despite the challenges of the current world, our students can still run together, from afar, and reap the multitude of physical and mental health benefits that come with exercising in nature.

Week One's challenge was a "SUBURB SCAVENGER", where students  hunted for 11 items in their street or suburb, and then uploaded photo evidence to the SMCC Run Squad Canvas Discussion Board.

Week Two's challenge  was "Faster and Faster"   The aim of this session was to increase their pace with each interval and to practice running fast on tired legs - Ideally,  running their fastest at the very end of the session!   

Week 3 -  This week was all about Hills! They make your legs SUPER STRONG and really help your speed on the flat (even though they are hard yakka!). This week students were asked to find a hill in your suburb and buckle up for some hill repeats!  

These weekly challenges are open to all students! Students interested in joining the Canvas page should email Miss Zappala - czappala1@cns.catholic.edu.au

Happy running!
