run maadi, run


Brian Conley was cheering them up ... a huge in number, senior citizens, but all are so young at their heart... it reminded me the famous words, "run forrest run"... one of the best oscar winning movies starring Tom Hanks ...


It was really a spectacular event in the morning hours of Bangalore when it was about to create a history with one of its kind World 10K run... it was a call for cause, call for good health and fitness ... and Bangalore did it so well, that it was evident from its participation...

It was a very busy sunday morning , bangalore has observed at the Kanteerava Stadium ...the traffic was diverted already... i had to keep my bike somewhere else, and then we, me and arindam, reach there by walking ... At 6:30 am, we could reach at the stadium, and after that it was all abot excitement ... Nikhil was at the commentry box, giving us the update minute by minute... people were ready, everything was set ,cheerleaders and dancers were warming up along with the Vyas brothers, Sandeep (singer) and DJ Sanjeev who kept the ground colorful and entertained....




Giant screen inside the stadium was for the people who wanted to see the photofinish for the World 10K for Elite Men 10k run ...and it never failed to treat us ...

anchored by Dino Morea the best part was the majja run ... where thousands of participants took part ... Batman ran, Ravana ran, nightangle ran , tipu sultan ran, saint ran, bharat mata ran and who not ... it was sea of mankind, vast humanity for the bangalorean ...



if the bangalorean were set for the majja run, the most inspiration was something came out from the senior citizens... one could cherish about the participation and enthusiam with the senior citizens... if they can run for a cause why not anybody else ... more than 700 senior citizens, an yellow battalian to suport Tina Ambani's NGO was the clear cut statement of the day ...
