The 2025 Wellness Program Begins with a bang

When the notice to the effect that “On Wednesday we are going to have a road run” reached all quarters, many assumed that it was going to be a walk in the park affair and that it was as easy as cutting margarine with a hot knife. Events of Wednesday the 29th of January 2025 afternoon were to prove otherwise. I literally witnessed some, instead of running, they were walking, holding on to their waist lines. Their clothes deeply soaked in sweat. Their tongues were loosely hanging out of their mouths as they looked up in the sky as if waiting for the rains. “Maihwe ndofa zvangu”…. Some were heard saying. The Road –run which started at around 2pm entailed getting out of the campus and run around it, an approximately +/- 5 Km Perimeter distance. Ms Lettie Sibanda was overheard saying she had assumed the role of “Chief Assessor” of the Road-run and she said she had noted some few cheating cases by some seniors and culprits will be brought to book.

Fast forward…….

On a serious note, the road-run marked the beginning of the 2025 Wellness initiative. It was a good relaxed atmosphere as members of staff interacted. They either ran or walked the distance. The idea was not to win by just to flex muscles. It is said a health body translates to a healthy mind and the productivity scale goes up. The Sports Director, Mr Kufa addressed members of staff stating that a lot of exciting programs were lined up for the year and members should get geared. Members were advised that the TESAZ Olympiad and multi medallist, Mr Mwachigomora was going to be the athletics coach.
