20. RUNNING CLUB
Measure your track or running area to determine the distance of one lap.Determine how you will keep track of how many laps a student runs. Many physical education teachers have them pick up a popsicle sticks as they complete a lap. At the end of the running time, the teacher records the number of laps they have finished based on the number of sticks they have accumulated.
Set the days and times your running club will meet. Some clubs meet two days a week before or after school, while others run during the lunch hour and have the teacher on duty monitor the number of laps they complete. You may want to do both.Ø  
They don’t necessarily have to “run”, they just have to complete a lap. So they can walk, skip, hop, twirl, or crawl. Any way they want to get in a lap.
When the student completes 5 miles the will receive a prize as determined by the school and physical education teacher. ( It can be as simple as their name on a chart

21. Set up rewards for various mile intervals
Set up rewards for various mile intervals. That is up to the individual school and physical education teacher.
