Shalane Flanagan is the first American female to win the NYC Marathon in over 40 years. And she won at age 36 with a time of 2:26:53! Whether it's the upcoming Seattle Marathon or a local 5km, how do we motivate our students to be fit for life? Consider these two different learning outcomes for students to be inspired in long-term fitness:

- Discuss how enjoyment can be increased in self-selected physical activities. PE5.2.8a

- Design and implement a personal fitness and nutrition plan to reach goals. PE3.8.HS1
