“Go Green” – promoting environmental responsibility, and
“Say No to Drugs” – encouraging the youth to choose health and positivity.
More than 2,500 students and parents participated enthusiastically across three race categories – Adults, Standards 8–10, and Standards 1–7.
The event became a landmark in the 167-year journey of St. Paul’s, blending fitness, social awareness, and environmental consciousness into one inspiring movement.
