On Thursday morning, we started with picture news. This weeks question was “is it ever too late to try something new”. This weeks story was about an 82 year old runner, who has shown that age hasn’t stopped her trying something new. She started running when she was 70! We then looked at reasons why people might do a marathon. After this we looked at different people who have tried new things at an older age, we looked at Grandma Liu, Wally Funk, Vera Wang and Colonel Harland David Sanders. Our task was to research different marathons held across the world today. In the afternoon we went to Tesco to buy all our things for breakfast butties tomorrow.
