TMM takes another step towards inclusion

Tata Mumbai Marathon on Thursday announced an exciting new partnership with Adventures Beyond Barriers Foundation as its Inclusion Ally to encourage Persons with Disability in the Open 10K category. ABBF, a notfor-profit organisation, works extensively towards inclusion via sports for persons with and without disability 67.

Sport pushes humans to test and conquer seemingly impossible limits. It has the ability to inspire, birth incredible stories, and bring out the gold in humanity. The Tata Mumbai Marathon is a befitting example of this. The journey of this event for the past 16 years has been transformational. From starting a health and fitness revolution in the country to bringing the community together without discrimination on one common platform, to creating an equal chance for amateurs and elite runners alike to vie for glory, to becoming the single-largest fund-raising platform of Indian sport.

Keeping in sync with this, the 2020 edition of the Tata Mumbai Marathon has officially opened up the 10K for Persons with Disablity.

This is an indispensable addition to the existing category which is currently reserved for women and charity bibs.

The Tata Mumbai Marathon offers an equal opportunity for all participants to compete for prize money and all finishers will be felicitated with a finishers certificate and a medal. This new feature also aims to motivate regular runners to volunteer for Persons with Disability as their ally, train with them and offer valuable tips that can guide them across the finish line.
