Congrats Raj, Apurba, Bhupendrasing for your wonderful achievement - fantastic - how do you guys manage a 100 km run on a monthly basis is beyond me. Ram and Venkatraman P - congrats on organising another smooth running event from what I have read. Congrats to all runners and non runner volunteers who took part in this special event and enriched themselves too in the process. Loved seeing the photos too.

@Raj - It coming from you, I will take that as a compliment :-).....
Guys - amazing initiative and a very memorable run. I still can't fathom how some of you managed to pull together the last few kms (post 70/80 kms) in the scorching heat the following day...."Champs in the head" indeed !!!!
