Great Himalayan Running Festival 2016
Jun 18 - 26 '16 | 11:00 AM (IST)
Event Information
‘IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE HARD .... THE HARD IS WHAT MAKES IT GREAT.’
Extreme temperatures to test you.
A cold desert as your playground.
Himalayan rivers and streams to keep you company.
High altitude passes to challenge your grit.
Bare mountain faces and blue skies to mesmerize you.
Thinner air to make your lungs gasp.
And some love for the open road!
The Hell Ultra might appear formidable to some and downright crazy to most, but for those of us who wish to get a taste of running at high altitudes we introduce the Great Himalayan Running Festival!
5 days. 5 mountain passes. 5 marathons!
Choose one, either half or full marathon and run that distance each day for 5 days in a row. Simple, right? Come. RUN and find out!
