Over 250 runners, including over 40 participating in 12 hours solo run and over 60 in 6 hours solo run, will compete in th inaugural edition of the Gurugram Stadium Run by Tuffman
There are over 100 runners in the 3 hours solo run, while 18 teams are participating in the 6 hours relay and 3 hours relay runs. A relay race team comprises three members.
The total strength of women runners are over 50 in various categories.
The runners from various groups like BootCamp YELLOW, Crossings Runners Club, Maston Ka Jhund, Gurgaon Runners Group, Pedal-o-hawks and Indirapuram Marathon Runners will be going to hit the track on Sunday.
Dhananjay Sharma who holds the national record in 12 hours solo run (135.61km), Anurag Sharma, who was the first runner up in 50km ultra run at Tuffman Shimla Ultra & Half Marathon Mashobra, and Anenthu Sukumaran, who made a podium finish in the last month held Tuffman Beach Ultra & Half Marathon Goa, are among the favourites to win the 12 hours solo run title.
"Stadium is totally a different type of run and running for a long duration on a 400m track is not an easy thing.
Apart from a great stamina, one needs to have a mental strength and focus for the stadium event, where one is running in a closed circuit," says Sanjay Mangla, himself an ultra runner and founder Tuffman. "This is for the first time we are organising stadium run in Gurugram. Looking at the response here, we have decided to include this event in our annual calendar."
