100 Mile Club Grand Opening
The 100 Mile Club has officially opened its new office in Norco. Local dignitaries, including Assemblyman Eric Linder, Mayor Kathy Azevedo, Mayor Pro Tem Berwin Hanna, and Councilman Kevin Bash, joined NACC and elected officials and chamber members from neighboring cities to celebrate.
The 100 Mile Club provides the opportunity to run or walk 100 miles at school during a single school year, which improves school readiness to learn, creates better educational outcomes, building self-esteem and the overall health in the lives of children and others.
Inspired by the 1992 Olympics, special education teacher Kara Lubin used the dream of becoming a gold medalist to inspire her hard-to-motivate students. That year, the 100 Mile Club was born from a simple idea: run 100 miles and earn a medal. With incentives given along the way, including a unique milestone t-shirt, lessons in goal-setting, determination, and team spirit are delivered along with excercise.
