About the event
Ever since its inception in 2009, the Marathon has evolved coherently over the years to currently stand as the biggest half Marathon in North East India. The half-marathon is held every year in the last week of august as a part of ‘Techniche’, the annual techno-management festival of IIT-Guwahati. The 6th edition of the marathon was held on 31st August 2014 with its theme “Run to affect the shift “.
Some recent incidents like the Peshawar attack, Charlie Hebdo shooting, Baghdad Bomb Blasts and the Kokrajhar-Sonitpur killings shook the world. The Guwahati Half Marathon’15 - ‘UNITY RUN FOR PEACE’ would be more than just a run; it would be a platform for people from different walks of life to come and spread their cognizance and sense of concern for a better society. We aim to show that if you dedicate a run for peace , you have the opportunity to demonstrate to the world that you care.
The Marathon consists of 4 major events:
* The Glory Run - a 21 km race for professional athletes
* The Spirit Run - a 6km race for the general public (kind of a fun run)
* Spirit Run - general championship for colleges (will be a part of the 6K RUN)
* Creativity Event - Painting Contest
