Patna is surrounded on three sides by rivers Ganga, Sone, and Punpun. Patna Marathon will start at Feb-26, 2012, during the festival season when most locals & tourists come to the city to celebrate festival of color (Holi). This year is also being celebrated as 100 years of Bihar’s foundation as a separate state. There is “Pravasi Bihari Diwas” function being celebrated from Feb-18 and Patna Marathon will begin on the last day of celebrations.
It will unite people across social, political & ideological divides in the festive sporting environment.
It will be a celebration of healthy living, fitness, vibrancy and “resilience”. We have gone through several bad phases, but this event will celebrate the spirit of Patna which is “Resilience”.
P for Patna, P for Progress. Patna runs for Progress.
