Running and Living is organizing the first edition of the Shimla Half Marathon on Sunday, Oct 4th. What makes it even better is that it is a long weekend on account of Oct 2nd being the national holiday, so great time to spend with your family, and enjoy a great half marathon in the hills. I am really looking forward to being there!

Following runs are part of the event:

  • Half Marathon – 21km Start time: 7.00 AM
  • Fun Run โ€“ 6km Start time: 8.00 AM

Registrations to the event are open and can be done here.

Event website: http://runningandliving.com/half-marathon-shimla.html

Route: A great scenic route amongst the hills of Shimla. It is a loop course which starts at PeterHof hotel, passes Vidhan Sabha, Scandal Point,  towards the Mall, onto CM’s residence, St. Bedes Chowk, Snowdown Hospital, past Lakkar Bazaar and back to PeterHof hotel. Thats the first loop and then we do this one more time!

Facilities: Like all events organized by Running and Living, expect the best here, proper hydration, medical support, toilets on route

Entry Fees: Rs 200/- for the Half Marathon and Rs 100/- for the 6K run. Medals and certificate for every Half Marathon finisher, and certificate for all 6K finisher.

@Rahul: Probably not, since I will be pretty busy on Oct 4th right here, as much as I would have loved to. Lets hope that Chicago has some good weather for a change this year!

WOW! this is a surprise. I am a native of Shimla and spent my youth there, my parents still have a place there. Would love to be in this run, unfortunately can't make it this year, have to run Chicago Marathon the following weekend. The course for Shimla half Marathon is pretty tough. Tanvir,are you running this one? I wish Rahul Verghse had given us some more notice.
