This year’s marathon will feature a diverse group of participants, including prominent figures from Mumbai and Thane, medical professionals, members of the armed forces, police and fire officers, as well as school students and community leaders. By coming together, they aim to shed light on critical topics such as organ pledging, brain death awareness, and the urgent need for organ donations to save lives.
The marathon serves as an inspiring platform to engage the community and emphasise the importance of organ donation while celebrating the spirit of health and fitness.

Through initiatives like 'My Organ Project,' we aim to educate and empower people to make a pledge that can give someone else a second chance at life. Together, let’s run for health, hope, and humanity."
Participants and attendees will not only enjoy the thrill of the race but also gain a deeper appreciation of how they can contribute to saving lives through organ pledging. Join us on January 5th to make a difference, one step at a time.
