Concord Students Run a Mile

Annual effort is part of the National Run a Mile Days.

Concord elementary school students spent part of the day on May 27, 2015, running at Memorial Field as part of the National Run a Mile Days event, a public outreach campaign with a mission to get more boys and girls excited becoming more fit and healthy with running the mile as a starting point.

The effort was started by the American Running Association, a nonprofit organization founded in the late 1960s, to promote healthy living and active lifestyles among all Americans.

Here are some photos from the event yesterday.
