Tawang Marathon
The Indian Army and Arunachal Pradesh State Govt are jointly organising the Tawang Marathon at Tawang on Sunday, 01 October 23.
It will be the first time a marathon of this scale will be organised in this part of the country.
Tawang at an average elevation of 10000 feet above mean sea level will give the participants a unique chance to participate in one of the very few and possibly the most challenging high-altitude runs in the country.
The aim of this event is to establish Tawang on adventure sports and a Marathon map to boost tourism in the region.
Apart from a large number of marathon enthusiasts from all over the country, the Indian Army, Indian Navy, Indian Air Force, and all major Central Armed Police Forces like ITBP and SSB are fielding solid teams for the event. The Tawang Marathon will include Marathon, Half-Marathon, 10 km, and 5 km races.
Hon’ble CM Shri Pema Khandu is supporting the event and he was the first one to register for the event.
