The 23rd edition of the Pune International marathon will take place on Dec 7th.
Event website: http://www.puneinternationalmarathon.com/
This is one of those events which can really make it big, but have chosen to stay in the past. No encouragement for regular runners with their strict completion rules, only promoting the professionals, still no online registration, still no timing chip. Disparity in Mens and Womens events – men run the 42K while women get to run just the 21K (which men cannot run). Really out of tune with the times.
There is a 10K run as well, and various smaller runs for lower age groups.

No Hri, Hyderabad is not on my plans for this year. Maybe some day, I will attempt to do all the big runs together in the same year as a personal record of sorts
Delhi/Ultra/Hyderabad/Mumbai, that would be one fun year!
Hey Tanvir, would you be coming for the Hyderabad 21k?
Since you are in Delhi, go for the Running and Living Half marathon on Dec 7th, or the Mawana Sugars Indian Open 21K/42K on Dec 28th. Details on DelhiRunners google group.
Hi Tanvir, I missed the half marathon at Delhi because of my relocation to Delhi (for new job) & for the same reason wouldn't be able to run Pune & Mumbai marathons. I would be definitely in if there is something in long-distance from Feb onwards. I'm considering 42.2Km run also.
And I must say that your blog is very informative. Please keep the good work going.
