Each year has been special with a rise in registration numbers. We began with 8000 registrations in 2013 and this year we aspire for 15000 registrations. We owe immense gratitude to our residents and Thane city for their contagious spirit of running every year. This marathon is the perfect representation of bringing communities together for a common goal amidst best living infrastructure in Hiranandani Estate. This marathon gets even more special as we ‘Run for Earth’ to create a better world. We are also delighted to have fitness icon Milind Soman as the brand ambassador of this year’s marathon. I am confident his presence will encourage everyone and will also help us achieve our sustainable goals.
