Read MoreThe 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.
Learn more and register here: https://www.m2mroadrace.com/
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.
