Loma Portal Foundation
Run 4 Life
Start each school day on the blacktop with Run for Life
Run for Life is a before-school program aimed at improving students' cardiovascular & mental health.
Parent volunteers scan each child's card, one scan for every lap completed, as students run/walk laps around the designated track on the blacktop.
It is NOT a race.
Students can walk or jog as many days a week as they want. Laps are tracked and students are awarded charms based on mileage completed.
Upon completion of 75 miles, students receive a gold medal. After completing 100 miles, students receive a t-shirt, and become a member of the
Loma Portal "Hundred Mile Club".
Special charms are also earned for birthdays, losing a tooth, participating in local 5Ks, and showing exceptional Loma Portal Dolphin spirit.
Run for Life started Mon, Aug 19, 2024, and continues daily, from 8:00 AM to 8:12 AM on the blacktop, weather permitting.
If you haven’t participated yet, it’s never too late to start!
Please do not send your child to school earlier than 8am, as there is no supervision.
Parents are encouraged to join the students on the track each morning to assist in providing motivation and a positive environment for the students,
and to get in your own laps!
