Regreen Chennai Marathon Trial Run


       The Regreen Chennai Marathon, which was one of Chennai’s biggest marathons last year, is going to be back again in Chennai this year. The organizers of the marathon are expecting this year’s Regreen Chennai Marathon to get even bigger and better than the last year’s event.

          

       Regreen Chennai Marathon will kick start on the 14th  of October this year and to physically prepare the runners for the marathon, a small training program was organized on the 12th  of August, 2018 at 6 AM in Besant Nagar beach, by the Regreen Chennai Marathon team, which was headed by Fr. Jegath Gaspar Raj.



       After the fitness training, which included some basic preparatory exercises, a short trial run was organized. Around 30 runners took part in the trial run and the distance they managed to cover ranged from around 2 to 5 kilometers.

                                                     
         The Besant Nagar trial run which was organized on the 12th of August has surely given our Regreen Chennai Marathon a good start for this year and after the run was over, most importantly the participants managed to interact with the general public that was present in the beach and communicate to them the importance of the marathon.


                                        
   

The public response, in general, was very positive and a lot of people have shown interest in taking part in the coming Regreen Chennai Marathon, on 14th October 2018.
