THE Philippine National Police (PNP) held various activities at the Quezon City Memorial Circle on Saturday to promote physical fitness among its personnel in the National Capital Region (NCR).
Dubbed "Pulisteniks, Bisekletahan, at Takbong Anibersaryo 2014," the activity, which was part of the PNP's 113th Police Service Anniversary, aimed to maintain the physical fitness and well-being of each active member of the police force to be able to perform well in the community.
PNP Public Information Chief Reuben Theodore Sindac said the program was set to sustain the effectiveness of police officers in seizing criminals.
The program catered activities like Taebo and Zumba, bike ride, and three- kilometer run.

Mascots of the Northern Police District were also present during the zumba exercises.
