A shotgun start! No … there’s not really a shotgun firing at any Morning Mile school, but you’d think there was. Nothing like seeing dozens of kids exuberantly and anxiously awaiting to bolt the moment their Morning Mile Coordinator or Coach says “go”! Wouldn’t it be awesome if adults were also so eager to run? Laughter and squeals: Yes indeedy! [...]
