The event is being held virtually with complete registration, certification, promotion activities all happening online. The participants are expected to participate from their own location in the event of their choice – running, cycling, or yoga, keeping Covid norms in view. 

The biggest advantage of the event is that it is being offered totally free. Each participant will get an e-certificate to prove his/her participation. There are certain paid options that are being offered at highly discounted rates.
 
Shaheed Bhagat Singh’s life and early martyrdom is an inspiration to people across the globe. His life and death hold numerous lessons for all of us even after nearly a century since he was hanged. Awareness of his supreme sacrifice, amongst the current day generation, is one of the goals of the event. Only when they learn of the huge amount of sacrifices made by our freedom fighters, will our young generation understand that freedom has definitely come with a price. 
 
Talking to media persons, chief co-ordinator of the event, Col JS Nagpal, Mentor of Colonelz SharpShooterz, Sports Consultants, said that the importance of fitness cannot be underestimated. Every day we hear of ever younger people falling prey to lifestyle diseases such as heart attacks and diabetes. The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has only highlighted the fact that a fit and healthy body is better placed to fight disease. We want to send the message of fitness to a huge audience, and Shaheed Bhagat Singh ji is our messiah in spreading this message.
