Through the Play 60 movement, we have worked with schools and community organizations to keep kids active through our Jr. Browns Physical Education program, reaching thousands of boys and girls who want to be active. This year, we have all been challenged due to the ongoing pandemic. Many individuals have been unable to get their normal physical activity or have been limited with areas to move around. To continue providing you with opportunities to have fun and stay active, we have developed a new Play 60 opportunity for all to enjoy.
We are launching a free, four-week fitness program, and we hope you will take the Cleveland Browns Play 60 Fitness Challenge in association with University Hospitals. The Browns will share with your school weekly fitness challenge videos, led by Browns alumni Jason Trusnik to share with students and faculty. Your school can participate in the weekly fitness challenges during your physical education in-person or online classes, or however you see fit!
Don't miss your chance to sign up for the FREE Cleveland Browns Play 60 Fitness Challenge.
