Winners 2023

Trail-a-thon is the fruit of most Delhi NCR Groups coming together under the banner of Aravali Trail Blazers
(ATB) with one purpose; to organize an event which can showcase the capabilities of the Running
Community of Delhi NCR by organizing an event which will set standards for others to follow through its
concept, innovations and execution providing benchmark for others to follow through a luxurious running
event for runners and lots of fun for the families and non runners

A well established Event

Trail-A-Thon now in its 11th year does not need any introduction; it has evolved to become the largest and
hottest Trail Running Event in the country. It is a time chipped event on a luxurious well supported fully
runnable trail but with a few twists and turns to ensure there are enough challenges for even the most
seasoned runners. It takes place in the scenic Manger forest region of the Aravalis in Gurgaon. It is also an
event where the running community comes together to create awareness about the Aravalis and their
awareness thus helping in their conservation, Besides serious runners, there is also plenty for the walkers,
nature lovers and families of runners to join in and enjoy the beautiful day walking in the forest with plenty
of activities to keep them engaged

As a runner you get to ‘Extend your limits’

We all know that the standard distances are 5,10, 21 and 42 kms, however here we encourage runners
to push themselves just a little more so the distances went to 7,14,28 with a ultra 56kms run for the
ultra running junkies.

All for a worthy cause

For The Nature Lovers: ‘Run, reclaim and revive Aravalis’: Aravalis are all around us and they are
gorgeous; unfortunately that is one of the best kept secrets of NCR. Trail-A-Thon lets you see the best of
nature, right in Gurgaon and in an extremely safe environs. ATB also prides itself in ensuring that we
leave the trail cleaner than we find at the beginning of the event. Thus food and water is served in either
steel crockery or in ecofriendly disposable ones. Even the water stations have only paper cups with
limited number of bottles. Over the years all our runners have been provided with water bottles
specially for running thus we encourage participants to bring their bottles and only refill to minimize
wastage.
We have partnered with I am Gurgaon and WildLife SOS to give you an invigorating morning which will
leave you enthralled with knowledge on Aravalis
Trail-A-Thon is all about showcasing the Aravalis; from their astounding beauty to ensuring the lovely
and unique flora and fauna. We pride ourselves in leaving the trails cleaner than when we found them!
