The Running Club conducts daily morning sessions from 6:00 to 7:00 AM involving students, local residents, and senior citizens. Activities include group runs, long-distance training, stretching, interval workouts, and strength drills. Regular digital engagement through WhatsApp and Instagram keeps members motivated, while future plans include evening runs, 5K/10K events, school collaborations, and community health check-ups.
Held on 9 February 2025, the Heracles of Lavasa Marathon brought together over 300 participants and 50 volunteers under the theme “Bigger, Braver, Bolder.” Organized in collaboration with NCC, CSA, Inclusiverse, and the Department of Physical Education, the marathon promoted climate action, healthy lifestyles, and inclusivity. Participants competed in 3KM, 5KM, and 10KM categories, beginning the day with an energizing Zumba session and running through Lavasa’s scenic routes in a celebration of fitness, unity, and social responsibility.
