- The Goa Marathon is an annual event, now in its ninth year (as of 2020). It has always been organized on the first Sunday of February. In its 2020 edition, organisers said more than 2000 participants ran to help raise funds for charitable causes. The Marathon currently features four races—the 21 kilometre Half Marathon, 10 Kilometre Run, 5 kilometre Dream Run and the School Run for children under 14 and 16 years of age. The 10K Run and the School Run, first started in 2014, are the most popular. The run is held in Panjim (Panaji), the state-capital of Goa in India, and is flagged off from the Campal Sports Ground on the banks of the River Mandovi. The different runs wind their way through town, and beyond in some cases, starting before dawn. The first edition of the Goa Marathon was organised in 2012 by students, Sahil Kashyap and Anjali Sharma, of BITS Pilani university along with the El Shaddai Charitable trust, which organizes the event even today. The first edition was held near the campus of BITS Pilani and saw participation not only from the students but also the Indian Army and Indian Navy. (en)
