Students began arriving at Los Nietos Middle School at 4:00 a.m. on the morning of the L.A. Marathon, March 18, 2012. They were in good spirits and ready to load the bus. Dressed in bright jerseys, they completed their look with light plastic rain gear, prepared for the unpredictable weather.
Nineteen students have trained long and hard afterschool and on weekends in preparation for the big run. On Marathon morning, they were joined by their dedicated coaches who would continue to inspire, coach, and lead them to success at the finish line to include: Mrs. Linda Cojohn, Mr. William Chavez, Mr. Barcelo, Ms. Patricia Baldelomar, Ms. Chammy Chan, and Ms. Christina Fontenot.
Congratulations to the amazing group of athletes, their supportive families, and fabulous coaches.
Special thanks to:
*The organization, Students Run Los Angeles. We appreciate that they include our middle school students. We are thankful and count ourselves lucky to be the only middle school east of the 605 freeway to participate.
*Linda Cojohn, our SRLA Coordinator.
*Aeolian Elementary for the pre-recognition at their Friday flag ceremony on March 16th to motivate students.
