10 Guidelines For P.A.C.E. Trek 2008 . . .
To help schools
get organized for participation in this P.A.C.E. Trek, we've
put together a few guidelines. Please keep in mind that
these are indeed "guidelines" and you can certainly do what
is necessary to have one or more teams participate using the
resources, space and time that you have available.
 A
school can have more than one team!
In fact, a school can have as many
teams as it would like to create. Please try to have
no more
than 60 students on each individual team.
On
each team there should be
no fewer than 12 students. If a team
were to only have 12 students, then each student would need
to contribute 20½ miles per week to keep pace with Paul.
If
possible, mileage should be acquired during the school day
while at Physical Education class or some other time
established by the team's supervising teacher.
Some
extra-curricular
sports mileage will be
allowed. Each P.A.C.E. Trek 2008 team member who is on a
school's sports team may apply mileage from their sport
practices as follows:
|
Team Size |
Mileage Allowed
From Sports Practice |
|
51 to 60 students |
Up to 2 Miles Each Week
Per Person |
|
41 to 50 students |
Up to 3 Miles Each Week
Per Person |
|
31 to 40 students |
Up to 4 Miles Each Week
Per Person |
|
21 to 30 students |
Up to 6 Miles Each Week
Per Person |
|
12 to 20 students |
Up to 10 Miles Each Week
Per Person |
|
NOTE: Allowable Miles Are Only Those Actually
Completed! |
Running
and walking mileage counts towards a team's total.
However, no other activity should be converted to miles in
order to build a team's total (like converting # of
jumping jacks to miles).
Students
with special needs should be given opportunities to use the
abilities they have to contribute to a team's distance. In
such cases, converting the amount of an activity to miles
counts.
Pedometers
can be used to measure distance, but cannot simply
be worn all day during school.
Pedometers can be used during
times established for running/walking
to acquire trek mileage.
One supervising
team teacher and up to 2 adult assistants
may run/walk with students during school times
set for acquiring trek mileage. The adults may add their
distance to the team total.
Once
the trek is underway,
teams shouldn't add more people.
However, if a team member becomes sick or injured and cannot
continue, he or she may be replaced if a substitute is
available.
Teams
can consist of multiple high school grades.
As an example, Freshmen and Sophomores at a school can
combine to be a team, while Juniors and Seniors make up
another team.
That's
It!
Pretty simple, eh?
