2. Registration Information
Hello Royal Families! I am looking forward to another great year of Running Club and hope it will be a good way to keep our students active and contribute to their overall health. Running Club is open to all Ryan students in grades K-6 (*Kindergarteners must have older sibling or guardian present during practice). We meet twice a week after school to exercise our hearts and muscles and work toward our running fitness goals. Come join us for a fun season of running with friends, participating in district races, and exercising to build healthier and stronger bodies!
Ryan Running Club begins Thursday, November 2 from 3:00 – 3:45 PM and continues until our last district race sometime in February/early March. (District race dates have not yet been announced). We will meet on the basketball courts on the playground promptly at 3:00 for warm-up after school. Running club days will always be on Monday afternoons from 3:00-3:45 and Thursday afternoons from 3:00-3:45. Practices will not be rescheduled due to holidays or bad weather. No afternoon running club on early release days.

4. What/when is Running Club?
Running club is a school program that gives students an opportunity to exercise through running. Running is an excellent activity to keep your heart healthy and a good way for students to push themselves physically.
Running club will be every Monday and Thursday afternoon from 3:00-3:45. There will be no make-ups due to bad weather or holidays.

5. Kindergarten
For safety reasons, kindergarteners may only run if they are accompanied by an older sibling or parent. They will not be allowed to run unless one of the above are present.

Immediately after the dismissal bell, students will go to the outside basketball courts to warm up.
Pick up is promptly at 3:45. You may park in the North parking lot and enter through the East gates.

When done running, students will check out and wait for their parent/guardian under the Ramada or on the basketball courts.
