A high school principal plans on doing a 100 mile marathon to show students that they can do anything if they put their mind to it. This isn't the first time he's done this type of marathon. He'll be running at the track field and it'll take 404 laps and about 24 hours to do. The principal won't just be running by himself and others will join him. Not only will they run alongside him, but they'll share stories to pass the time along as well.
I think it's great that the principal is not only inspiring kids, but also setting an example for them. There are many figures throughout history who inspire others such as Thomas Edison, Martin Luther King Jr., or George Washington. Many people were influenced by them.

I think this is wonderful. He is really setting a great example for his students and it's quite admirable.
