Happy New year everybody! We're back to school and the routine of the second term. Today we have snow in Segovia but not too much!
We want to tell you about some traditions and things we have done since the last time we posted on this blog. We'll start with a special race in our town:
Many Spanish towns and cities hold the "San Silvestre" race each year on New Year' s Eve. In Segovia this road race is now called "End of year race". There are different categories, children and adults participate. From the school we promote the participation of our students in this race and lots of children take part. This year it was cold but warmer than previous ones because it was sunny. Some adult runners wear costumes like for Carnival.

The Town Hall rewards this participation and the school gets some money to spend on sport supplies.
We don't have any races like this but we do cross-country running in school sometimes. How far was the race and how long did it take?
ResponderEliminarThe children's race, 800 m., the adults' 5 km.
