Incarnate Word Academy students, parents, siblings, faculty, staff, friends and alumni, participated in the 9th Annual Angel Mile on Aug. 17 at the school’s training site, which is located at Our Lady of Corpus Christi.

The training site, which includes a one-mile trail, offers a safe training environment for student-athletes to run on.

“IWA’s annual Angel Mile event provides a healthy start to the school year,” IWA Coach Donald Patterson said. “It encourages students and families to stay healthy and have fun at the same time.”

At the end of the school year, students will clock another mile to assess their physical condition improvement from the start of the year.
