Vrukshathon 2019 is a Half Marathon organized by FITNESSS FIRST.

Vrukshathon Half Marathon is a flagship event conceptualized & organised by Fitnesss First to spread environmental awareness and promote the spirit of health & fitness.

In the inaugural year – 10th June 2018, we distributed a tree sapling to all 2000 participants who successfully completed the run. We also Pledged that all participants who preserve the tree sapling and show documented growth of the tree as proof,will be offered free registrations for the upcoming year – 2019;and the response we are getting for this initiative is tremendous.

We also aim at preparing athletes for various national & international events by providing training through Fitnesss First, giving them relevant exposure.

The Vision and Mission of Vrukshathon is to spread the message that it is impossible for humans to survive and be fit without trees and a healthy environment; hence we need to learn to co-exist with nature.
