After warming up, participants began their run on the runway, illuminated by neon lights and rhythmic music. To earn stickers based on their performance of running, they also participated in various sports games such as pot-toss, ring-toss, and jigsaw. The event not only helped the students exercise physically but also provided an opportunity for them to make new friends and socialize.
