63 KM run from Thrissur to Palakkad on 27th July 2025

One year ago, during one of our routine training runs, Mary Joshi said why not let us just rune from Thrissur to Palakkad ....I took it as a joke as I had no previous experience of running this long distance. The longest ever i ran was 42Km few times and few Ultra hill runs.

As my birthday got nearer she reminded me again and inspired me to give it a serious try. 

Well that was the beginning of a running event that happened on 27th July 2025 , just 3 days after by birthday. Thanks to support from Endurance Athletes Thrissur, Fort Runners Palakkad, district authorities, Kerala Police and Jt.RTO & Mathrubhoomi Sr.GM Mr.Bhasi, who honored the closing ceremony with his presence, the run was a huge success. More than 30 elite runners from Kerala participated and we completed the event with zero injury. Eveready Ultima and Cosmopolitan Club Palakkad were kind enough to sponsor our run. The souvenirs ( coffee cups with run map and picture of runner printed ) will be etched in our memory for a long time, thanks to Sujit who part sponsored the same. The medals were made of Coconut shell , another unique feature of the run.
