Results are in for the 2010 Fittest School Challenge. For 2010, we extended the Fittest School Challenge outside of Knox County to include surrounding counties too. We then awarded a $250 cash prize for the physical education program to the winning school in each county. The elementary school with the highest percentage of participation was deemed the winning school. Congratulations to the following schools who won in their respective county:

With the wonderful support of Covenant Health, we are happy to offer the 1 mile Covenant Kids' Run as part of the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon.
Date: Sat, 4/2/11 Time: 6:00 p.m.
The Covenant Kids Run is a program created to encourage our local children to lead healthy and active lifestyles while participating in an exciting, goal oriented, community event. Those participating will run a total of 25 miles in the time period leading up to the race (April 2, 2011). On race day, participants will run a 1 mile course, finally completing the marathon distance of 26.2 miles. They have an option to run or walk the 26.2 miles. Our goal is not only to address personal fitness, but to build self esteem and confidence through goal setting and teamwork.
Parents and/or teachers are encouraged to help during the process. Coupon rewards will be provided at various points along the way! All logs should be turned in upon packet pickup at the Health and Fitness Expo. Packet pick-up will be at the Expo on Saturday, April 2, 2011 at the Knoxville Convention and Exhibition Center. Be sure and show up in plenty of time to pick up your child's packet, browse the expo, and head over to the start line of the 2011 Covenant Kids Run!
