This week we are proud to share the accomplishments of Mrs. Susan Smith’s Third Grade Class who ran 26.2 miles over the course of 8-weeks through our Flying Fanatics Program. All year, her third grade class at Centennial Elementary School have been following Ms. Smith’s husband’s goal of running a marathon in all 50 states in 1 year to reach Titanium level in the Marathon Maniacs. This past spring break Mr. Smith completed his final state with the Big Island International Marathon in Hilo, Hawaii; it was this momentous occasion that inspired the class to run their own marathon.
This project started out as a geography lesson for the students. “I thought it would be fun for my third graders to keep track of the states,” Susan commented. She provided a map of the U.S. and on Mondays they would utilize the map to answer a variety of questions such as: 
Which state do you think he ran? Does anyone know where that state is? What is the two letter abbreviation? ect. The students enjoyed being a small part of Dan’s quest. Almost right after, I read about the Flying Fanatics and emailed Chris “Hollywood” Warren about signing up my whole class. With the school administration's support they were able to push forward.They began early March, “We would usually do three or four loops around the front of our school which worked out to be about 1.2 miles.” The Flying Fanatics program also tied in with Centennial Elementary’ s Hearty Heart program where children learn about the importance of eating healthy and exercising.
“At first,” Susan commented, “I was a little worried they would not like to do all that running, but they were always excited to get outside and take a break from the classroom.” If it rained they ran in doors, and when it was nice out they would loop around the school. She even had a number of individuals join them on these runs including her student teacher, former student, and of course her husband.
For the final race Susan had invited the children’s parents to either join their children on their run or spectate and cheer. She gave them personalized cow bells to ring and made “26.2” themed cookies for her class to eat as a reward. With the finish line, creatively wrapped between two tether-ball poles, the children raced happily to complete their final goal.
“All in all this program was a big success in my classroom. We even had a newspaper reporter attend our finale day. He had come to interview my husband about his fifty states goal and he included my class’s Flying Fanatic running program in his story! …The students really enjoyed all the special perks – the t-shirts (which we wore for our class yearbook photo), the water bottles, tattoos (they all wore on the finale), stickers, and the awesome medals, of course.”
Thank you Susan for being such a great teacher and role model to your students. It is individuals like you who invest in the future and well-being of our children who are making the change we want to see in the world.
This project went so well that we here at the Maniac/Fanatic Headquarters would like to sponsor another classroom this 2019-2020 school year. If you or someone you know would like to implement the Flying Fanatics or Mini-Maniacs in your classroom or even for your own children, email us at info@marathonmaniacs.com.
