The nation-wide campaign that aims at encouraging people to include physical activities and sports in their everyday lives under the name ‘Fit India Freedom Run’ was conducted in Bhavans Smart Indian School. Central Board of Secondary Education in association with this magnificent campaign had taken this initiative to implement it in all its affiliated schools. Their mammoth motto –‘Run Anywhere, Anytime’ which enables its followers to promote good health by infusing fitness as a daily routine was actively and cheerfully carried out by the management that includes the school Principal – Mr. Mahesh Iyer, Vice Principal – Ms. Albin Daisy, Department of Physical Education along with the teachers, parents and students of grades 5 to 11. The launch of this campaign in the school which had taken place from 17th to 19th September had seen tremendous appreciation and the participants showed their relentless participation on those three days.

Joining hands virtually to build a great nation and to detach completely from laziness, obesity, stress, anxiety and many sort of diseases, the three day program successfully instilled a sense of discipline and awareness to include physical activity in regular regime. The joint sessions had taken place from 6 a.m to 6.30 a.m where the participants joined for live running from their nearby areas, keeping all the necessary precautions against this pandemic. The morning sessions had continuously occurred on all three days. The runners who could not join the live sessions were encouraged to post their running either in the form of videos or pictures. They were instructed to run at their own pace by keeping track of the kilometers they run using tracking app or GPS watch. Issuance of e-certificates was also added in this amazing venture. This great motivation which indulged in prioritizing discipline and fitness had promised to procure indomitable will to stay hale and hearty in these perilous times of sickness.
