The M2M road race is back!

The M2M road race is back after a three-year hiatus! This will be the seventh edition of this event, and it aims to be bigger and better than before. As part of our MYP physical and health education program, we are using M2M as a culmination of our running unit.

For students, the purpose is to set a goal of completing the 5k (3.1 mile) run and to create a plan that will lead to success. In addition to M2M being the big event in our running unit, it is also an important one for VIMSIA because the funds raised go towards the after-school sports program. These proceeds help enhance our facilities, buy equipment and uniforms, and competition travel expenses. The cost for students to participate in M2M is $15 ($30 for adults).

A major thank you to all of the M2M sponsors below! Please go out and support these businesses, as we could not organize this without them.

Additionally, we are looking for event volunteers. Click here to download the volunteer form and email Sarah Auchincloss (sarahauchincloss6@gmail.com) with any questions.

Grit

Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day-in, day-out. Not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years. And working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living life like it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
— Dr. Angela Lee Duckworth

Congratulations to all of the M2M runners.  64 PGIA students completed the 8 mile road-race from Montessori to Magens.  Your hard work and tenacity in preparing for and running the race will be present in you always.  M2M is not just a race.
