According to the relevant person in charge of the school’s student union, this night running event held during the National Day is to call on students to go out of the dormitory and the playground during the National Day to exercise and strengthen their bodies. "We innovate the running form in the way of 'night running + fluorescence'. After the students start at night, the bracelets they wear will emit fluorescence in the night, which means a little fluorescence in the dark, and a small fire makes a torch. As soon as the activity starts, it is welcomed and loved by students."
According to reports, this night running activity lasts from September 29 to October 7. Every night from 19:30 to 21:30 every night. Students can collect fluorescence night running props at the entrance to the west side of the south playground of the school headquarters, and use sports apps or mini programs to record their running mileage. The school's cumulative running mileage reaches 1949 kilometers or 2022 kilometers, and can also be on the "1949 Honor List" or "2022 Honor List".

In addition, students of the school can also choose the "fancy running route", that is, running the route patterns such as "73", "twenty", school emblem or heart shape, which means celebrating the 73rd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and welcoming the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Students participating in fancy running also have the opportunity to obtain plush mascot dolls from the Municipal Youth League Committee, Beijing Institute of Technology or the Student Union, or national trend gift boxes.
"Doing night runs during busy study intervals is not only physical exercise, but also mentally relaxing." Zhao Hanhua, a student in the 2019 class of Electronic Information Engineering, Department of Information of Beijing Institute of Technology, also participated in this night run. While running, although the night was dark, he saw the jumping light spots on the playground, and could feel that he was not running alone, "there is the joy of integrating into it and enjoying the exercise."

, Chang Kai, a 2021 class of the Sociology Department of Legal Affairs, Beijing University of Technology, introduced that "Fluorescent Night Run" is a traditional event held by the school student union every year. Compared with last year's event, he believes that this year, both the enthusiasm of students to participate and the fun of the event have been significantly improved. "This kind of activity not only helps students exercise their bodies in an interesting way, but also reflects our student union's purpose of 'serving students first'." Chang Kai said.
According to reports, during this National Day, the student art troupe, student union, and student club of Beijing Institute of Technology will also carry out offline performances, singing performances, online video exhibitions and other theme cultural activities, flower arrangements and flower baskets, to enrich the cultural life of students during the National Day.
