British ultra-runner Jack Faint, who is living with a brain tumour, was warmly welcomed in Mohali as part of his extraordinary mission to run the length of India — over 4,000 km in just 80 days. His journey stands as a powerful symbol of endurance, resilience, and hope for millions battling cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.
Having already crossed multiple Indian states, Jack’s arrival in Punjab marked a significant milestone in his campaign. His mission resonates deeply with Punjab’s ongoing efforts toward a drug-free society (Nasha Mukti) and greater cancer awareness.
Paragon Senior Secondary School, located in Sector 69, Mohali, proudly hosted Jack during his visit. The school, known for promoting health, fitness, and social responsibility among students, joined hands with Jack to spread his powerful message of perseverance and community healing.
“Jack Faint’s journey is a powerful reminder to our students that courage and determination can overcome even the toughest battles. We are honoured to support a cause that promotes both physical fitness and social awareness,” said S. Mohanbir Singh Shergill, Director of Paragon Senior Secondary School, Sector 69.
Both Director S. Mohanbir Singh Shergill and Administrative Director Harshdeep Singh Shergill were present at the event, reaffirming the school’s commitment to meaningful social engagement and youth empowerment.
Jack’s incredible run is much similar to the Hansali Khera Run 2025 campaign, initiated by Hansali Wale Baba Ji, Sant Baba Paramjit Singh Ji, with the blessings of Brahm Giani Sant Baba Ajit Singh Ji. The campaign promotes youth involvement in sports, health initiatives, and community service across Punjab. Baba Ji also gave his blessings to Jack to successfully complete his mission.
Supporting this initiative are the Nargis Dutt Foundation and the JEETO Awareness Campaign, both respected for their work in cancer prevention, early detection, and public education. Their involvement is helping amplify Jack’s message throughout the region.
Jack Faint’s run is not just a physical feat — it’s a transformative movement to inspire change, raise awareness, and unite communities in the pursuit of a healthier, stronger, and more compassionate India.
