2012 estimated runner figures for India and the

US

People in India don’t run because of…

Bad Roads

Stress

No impetus on sports

Lazy attitude

Who are the one’s who do run?

Government / Military armed services

Foreigners

Corporate employees

Fitness enthusiasts

But that number is very less

So where do we find more runners?

Youngsters(16 – 30 years)

The initiative behind ‘Trekkers and

Runners’ is to bring people to realize the untapped excitement

they will feel when they go and

experience runs and treks either with us or by themselves

Why Running?

Simplest & The Most Cost Effective sport

Releases more than just sweat

Builds muscles

self-motivation

Produces a sense of achievement

Mumbai Marathon 2013

Participation : 40,000

0.3% of Mumbai’s population

We want to get more people to run and

give them reasons to do it

‘The Madh-Marve run’ is one such

reason

Why Marve?

Because malad is a large mumbai suburb and doesn’t have its own running group or

races

We want to change that

The Marve route is a fantastic quiet green stretch adjacent to

the sea

The start point of the race

The route lined with trees

The turn to Aksa beach

The finish point at Aksa

What do we aim to achieve through this

event?

encourage them to keep running with a

weekly training program
