Cambridge Mile 2025

Cambridge Mile: 10th Anniversary

The annual Cambridge Mile run is more than just a sporting event, it is a true celebration of life, energy and unity that brings together students, parents, teachers and everyone in a common quest to be healthy and energetic.

Atmosphere of the event

From the first minutes of the event participants were enveloped by incredible energy. Mime artists welcomed guests with bright, dynamic performances, creating a festive mood. Meshchersky Park was painted in purple colour of our T-shirts and decor. Interesting fact! The design of the T-shirts was chosen by the participants themselves by voting in our telegram channels. In other words, everyone could immediately feel that they belong to our large and friendly school community.

Programme of the event

We scheduled two separate starts: one for kids, and one for adults. Before the start, a fitness instructor conducted a rousing warm-up. To the rhythmic tracks of the DJ, participants performed exercises, warming up their muscles and tuning up for the upcoming race.

The run offered two distances, 1 and 2 miles. Everyone could choose a route according to their strength and abilities. And the route ran through a picturesque forest, with comfortable running paths, water stations and an ensemble of musicians. They supported with uplifting rhythms everyone who had ran a certain distance and had not given up. The youngest participants were only 2 years old, they, of course, passed their first race together with moms and dads. The guests, who this year came as support, were not bored either: the concert programme prepared by our teachers and students gave a lot of positive emotions.

The organizers have thought of every detail:

- Tents with a variety of food

- Interactive zones for children

- Photo zone for memorable pictures

- Areas for rest and relaxation

- Ambulance on duty at the location in case of emergencies

Each runner at the finish line received a commemorative medal and a round of applause and support. The main rule of the CIS community: everyone cheers for everyone. Our presenters from the stage reminded the participants before the start that the spirit of competition does not always lead to the desired results, but for those who compete only with themselves and want to become the best version of themselves, there is no loss. At the end of the event, the runners who showed the best results in their categories were awarded with prizes and applause.

The guests stayed long after the event was over, and we enjoyed chatting with them and gathering feedback so that Cambridge Mile 2026 can be even better. All participants agreed that there is nothing better than the sense of team spirit and the joy of spending time together that they find every year at our race.

The Cambridge Mile's mission is not only about promoting healthy lifestyles, it is also about strengthening family values and the opportunity to spend time together with loved ones and see your teachers and classmates in an informal setting. We believe that academic and athletic success is only possible in an atmosphere of support, understanding and cooperation. We look forward to seeing you at Cambridge Mile 2026!
