The White Oak Marathon is back!
This year, families will complete the majority of the laps outside of school hours, on your own time. Track your progress as you go and then join us for an exciting final lap at school, where we will celebrate everyone’s achievement as a community. Whether you walk, jog, or run, this is a fun way to stay active, build family memories, and finish strong together!
Registration is no longer available but read on for more information if you have already signed up.
The Final Mile
The final mile of our marathon will be run at school on Friday, November 21 at 2:00. The mile run course will wrap all around the school campus with teachers, students, and parents lining the running course to cheer students on.
What to Wear
Students should wear their marathon t-shirts and something comfortable to run in. To ensure a safe start to our mile run, students will take off in waves of approximately 20 runners every 10-15 seconds. Parents who wish to run with their child may step in behind the wave of students to run with their child.
Post-Race
After students finish running the final mile they will be held in the cafeteria/gym until all students have finished and our teachers have returned to their classrooms. At that point, students will return to their classroom, and all will be dismissed using our normal bus and carpool dismissal procedures. Due to the number of students participating in the event, you will not be able to check your child out early from school that day. Please know this to ensure safety and order with the large number of wonderful runners we have at White Oak!
Track Your Laps!
