TMM Practise Run - 4 in Mumbai

TMM Practise Run - 4 in Mumbai

Mumbai
15 - 15 December 2019

In continuance to the first two practice run, this time the response was little milder. Largely due to 2 separate marathons happening in Mumbai at the same time on the same day. However, with the previous two practice runs, this time the comforts between Allies & PWDs was much better. Many allies & the PwDs expressed interest in choosing their running partners based on their matched pace, etc. 42 odd Allies & 30 odd PWDs turned up for the practice. As usual, most turned up on time. Many from Sujaya foundation didn’t turn up despite confirmation – possibly because they participated in other marathons. Car was arranged to pick many of them from VT & Churchgate stations. Activities like getting the PWDs & Allies to warm up, distribution of tethers for coordinated running, etc was quite exciting for all. This time, after flag-off, most participants started returning back in about an hour, unlike last time when most came back in 45-50 mins. All of them were thrilled about the whole activity and there was a noticeable difference in the confidence levels of PWDs as well as the Allies. They looked much better gelled-in with each other.

Breakfast with juices, cakes, fruit, water, etc. was ready for everyone. The excitement levels despite the tiring practice run was palpable.

People were enjoying taking selfies using the RunTogether banners and boards. Like the previous time. The event concluded at around 9.00 AM and almost all were returning back with a big smile. A lot of enrolment forms were received/filled up on that morning.
