Because the parks and recreation department has partnered with Pennsylvania's Healthy Kids program, elementary age students signing up can indicate which school they're running for. Then the average times from the top five finishers from each school will be used to determine top honors. The winning school will receive a trophy and a donation for its phys ed program.
