Winners in the 10-mile, 5-mile, and kids’ categories were felicitated, and lucky draw winners walked away with prizes including two premium bicycles and a smartwatch.

With upbeat music, food stalls, and a festive vibe, the event turned into more than just a run—it became a celebration of Earth, wellness, and unity. Anant Raj Limited now plans to make the Runathon an annual tradition, further strengthening its commitment to sustainable, community-driven growth.
