“When we started (Runathon) in 2014, it was to spread a message.” – Late Virendra ‘Sam’ Singh
(Founder – Pardada Pardadi Educational Society)
More than a decade later, that message has only grown louder.
In 2014, a small but determined group of girls laced up and ran through the streets of Anupshahr, not for a trophy, not for a record, but to prove a point. That girls belong on the track just as much as they belong in the classroom. That rural India could produce runners, dreamers, and leaders all at once.
The Pardada Pardadi Runathon is a cause-driven community run rooted in the belief that girls’ education and empowerment are not privileges, they are rights.
Every edition brings together students, families, athletes, and changemakers who run not just for themselves, but for every girl who was told she couldn’t.
