Ruggedian Kolhapur Run

“ RUGGEDIAN SHIVAJI Raje ” Race is conceptualized based on Shivaji’s great escape from Bijapur’s Siddhi Johar’s seizing on the Maratha fort of Panhala. Hence, we have reserved the theme, duration and distance of the race to go hand in hand with the historic significance related to it. After all, being Shivaji is not easy!
Don’t just race with others for victory but race against yourself and for the fiery Shivaji in each one of you! Bask in the glory of a 12 hour duel with rough terrains & endurance! Let your patriotic Mavla spirit soar high & leap in the madness of an adventurous historic Race! This race will put your patience to test – mentally & physically! It’s definitely not for the faint-hearted! However, some kind words for all the participating athletes – you all will be heroes regardless of your victory; what will matter eventually is that you put up a great fight against all odds till the finish line! 

This is a solo and self-supported race, categorized in 5 km, 15 km and 42 km; participants are at liberty to choose from these options based on their physical fitness and endurance capabilities. Although this race is open for all age groups, participants should keep in mind that this is not everyone’s cup of tea. They will have to maneuver through gut-wrenching hills, forests, village back-roads, thick vegetation, single track, muddy trails on a rainy foggy day! 

Let the Maratha Mavla meet modern-day athletics to create a truly unique and adventurous race. Be a part of something that will be remembered for ages to come, however, "easy" isn’t a word in our dictionary; do you think you have what it takes?
