To Julie, Chris, Richard
From Janet
There is a lot of support for the sponsored run.
240 students have signed up and the organization
is going well. Julie has publicized the event on
message boards and you can sponsor the runners
online on a special website. Chris has designed a
route which is exactly 10 km. Friends and parents
will be happy with the route because it’s easy to
see the runners. The event is in June, but it might
rain because this is England! If it rains, Richard
will provide special rain gear for the runners.
Action points
1) Richard is going to email the route to runners.
2) Janet is going to set up tables of water every
2.5 kilometres. If it’s sunny, the runners will get
thirsty and it’s important to stay hydrated.
3) Julie is going to find out if we need to inform
the town council about the event.
4) Julie is also going to ask the teachers to join in.
If students see that their teachers are
participating, they’ll train harder.
