Course / Route Map
The Delhi Half Marathon route goes back to the inaugural 2005 route (with some changes) which started and finished at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. Reports indicate that the route might be a no flyover route, no better time to pull off a fast time than this year!
For the last 2-3 years the route had changed to a Nehru Park, Chanakyapuri start/finish because of all the renovation work going on at the JN Stadium.
Directions:
JN Stadium – Lodi Road – Mathura Road – Dr Zakir Hussain Marg – India Gate – Rajpath – Janpath – Raisina Road – Mandi House – and then back on this route
Great Delhi Run
The Great Delhi Run is the event with the most participant at the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon, and also the most colorful, with participants running in costumes, holding banners, placards, groups walking for their cause, etc. The distance for the run is 6KM. Route map of the Great Delhi Run is shown below.

Hi There
Can you please give me the date for the 2013 halfmarathon in delhi
Thanks franz

Dear All,
i ran my 3rd Airtel Delhi Half marathon yesterday. this year’s edition was much better organized and became a truly international race. Organizers may actually look into stocking the refuelling stations with isotonic drinks and bananas in future editions. the weather yesterday was perfect. With a different & flatter course than previous years, it was a beauty to run on a misty november delhi morning.
Another thought that kept creeping in mind all along.. .if only delhi can drive as silently as it runs !! Honkers had a lesson to learn.
see you all next year!

Dear All,
Delhi Half Marathon (21.097 Kms.) is scheduled for 27th Nov. all formalities for this year participation are already over. One may now look for next year session & formalities for same may start some time next year Aug. 2012.
Any healthy person can participate into it, advisable to have a lot of practice if one plan to complete the Half Marathon in stipulated time period. It really requires years of running practice to enhance your time period for the race, Iam participating in it for last three years & hope to complete the race within 2 Hrs. this year. Request you all to practice for next year session and do good into it. You need to know your initial capacity to run initially and gradually increase the limit of your run with decreased event time. Best of luck to all and believe me it is possible at any age only your strong desire, dedication is required. For any advise one may reach on my mail bisht_rajiv@rediffmail.com Thx
