On a sunny day in Apex, North Carolina, hundreds of elementary students gathered at Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School for the 42nd First in Fitness competition. The event, organized by Wake County Public Schools, saw student-athletes compete in several events, including the mile run, shuttle run, pull-ups, long jump, and jump rope. Each participant earned the right to represent their elementary school by being the best in their event at their grade level. Elementary students from the southern half of Wake County will compete tomorrow, and 6th graders from the entire district will compete on Monday.
