This was one of the best marathons I've run. A huge thank you to Dilip S Ghadge sir and Sanjay Kalukhe Sir for giving me the opportunity to pace.
Organizing a full marathon in a city area is no easy task, but the Borgonkar Marathon team pulled it off flawlessly. The event was well-organized, the route was fantastic, and the hydration support was excellent. The volunteers were incredibly encouraging, cheering us on the entire way.
The flag-off timings for each race category were thoughtfully planned. I had a great time running alongside Sanjay Sir and the rest of the team. It was wonderful to meet so many fellow Comrades runners; it almost felt like a Comrades training run! I was thrilled to hear that many participants achieved their qualifying times.
Best wishes to everyone-keep up the inspiring work and continue motivating others on their fitness journeys!!

Flawless event #borgaonkarrotarykalyanmarathon I am falling short of words to describe how good this event is, right from bib collection, pre race holding area, km markers, en route hydration points had ample supply of water, electrolytes, oranges, salt, dates, bananas, boiled potatoes, coke. Excellent traffic control on entire route, volunteers on bike and cycles ensuring that we are well hydrated to post run ease of medal collection, hot breakfast, ample of physiotherapist and great recovery zone.

Kudos to the exceptional volunteers who went above and beyond to ensure runners' hydration needs were met! I was impressed when I requested salt and a volunteer sprinted 300m to provide it. Additionally, volunteers on bikes were mobilized to offer hydration support, showcasing their dedication. Hats off to the entire organizing team for a seamless and supportive experience.

It was My pleasure and I felt not guilty by not running in my home ground ‘due to injury ...but made a point to help runners hydrate well during runs and cheer them up when I saw some runners demotivated...Thanks to Dilip sir for giving me the opportunity of volunteering and seeing the marathon runners the other way around, which also taught me many things.
