Why MarathonMitra Exists

India's running ecosystem is fragmented. Runners struggle to discover events, organizers lack consistent visibility, and communities often operate in silos.

MarathonMitra bridges these gaps by offering a centralized platform for event discovery, storytelling, and community connection. For organizers, we provide visibility and data-driven insights to reach the right runners.

We're not just listing events — we're building infrastructure for India's running culture.

MarathonMitra - Built by runners, shaped by the community.

Built by runners. Shaped by the community.

Our Vision
