Organiser's Note

Welcome to the first edition of Run Gandhinagar Run. Being a non-profit entity, we have kept a very nominal race fee for our runners. It is our vision that through this run, every citizen of Gandhinagar leads a healthy life. May the culture of running develops and everybody comes out and enjoy the beautiful mornings of Gandhinagar. We also pledge that earnings if any, would be spent on patients with congenital heart diseases.
