ASR iHEART Run 2025: Set Your Pace, Own the Race
The ASR iHEART Run 2025 brought the college community together in a celebration of fitness, community spirit, and service. Held on the final day of Term 2 at the Singapore Sports Hub, the event placed a strong emphasis on cardiovascular health and collective well-being.

Promoting Wellness and Community Engagement
This year’s theme, Set Your Pace, Own the Race, encouraged students, staff, and parents to embrace active lifestyles while moving at a pace that reflected their personal goals. Students competed in a 4km run, with some staff running alongside them. Other staff and parents participated in a separate 1.3km walk. The event also extended beyond race day, with staff and students contributing additional run and walk distances outside of school as part of the Inter-Class, Inter-House and Inter-Department Challenge.

Fostering Healthy Competition and House Spirit
The run incorporated Inter-Class, Inter-CCA, Inter-House, and Inter-Department categories, creating multiple avenues for participation. Artemis emerged as the top House. In the CCA categories, top-performing teams included Badminton, Hockey, and Basketball (Boys), and Netball, Touch, and Badminton (Girls).

A Heart for Service
The event took on added meaning through Project Sunsetz, a student-led initiative in partnership with the Singapore Heart Foundation. As part of this project, four students promoted cardiovascular health and raised funds through the sale of self-designed t-shirts. Their efforts encouraged the college community to reflect on the importance of regular exercise—such as running and walking—in supporting lifelong cardiovascular wellness.

Powered by Collaboration
The main planning committee from ODAC, supported by classes 25/04 and 25/14 under the guidance of the Physical Education Department, brought the event to life. The Parent Support Group lent their support by participating in the 1.3km walk and cheering on students throughout the event.
