The preparations for the annual Indore Marathon, an Initiative by IIM Indore when the whole of Indore joins together to run against rape and discrimination- crimes that have victimized our society for so long, has already kicked-off. This first leg preceding the D-Day is a prequel and a practice to the main event which is a fitness program overseen by the student body of IIM Indore. The whole purpose of this program is to make the common Indorean, marathon-ready. The agenda includes a variety of health and nutrition guidance apart from general exercising. Special cardio-vascular training including breathing and stretching techniques is also covered; all of these are aimed at increasing stamina so as to enable a prospect to reach the finish line of the marathon without much difficulty. The first session of this kind had already been rolled out on 12th September 2013 in the Meghdoot Gardens. Subsequent sessions of the same are due to be held in the following days up till Gandhi Jayanthi- the day of the final showdown. These training camps are planned to be conducted in other famous venues like Lal Bagh Stadium, Nehru Stadium apart from Meghdoot Garden during the early hours from 6:30 am to 8:30 am. Further, the sessions will be overseen by instructors from Gold’s Gym who had all been national or state level athletes and are now professional fitness trainers. Indore Marathon is an open event that caters to the entire demography without any barriers on age, gender, profession etc. Last year, it had seen a diverse mix of participants starting from ten year old kids to sixty-five year old senior citizens. Centering these sessions on this basic attribute of the main event, IIM Indore extends its warm invitation to all the people of Indore. Do not miss out on this chance to learn more about healthy living as well contribute in spreading the message against Rape and Discrimination by exerting this one run. Such an act would go a long way in propagating this strong social message.
