The Potpourri Challenge 2020
May 30 '20 - Jul 28 '20 | 12:00 AM (IST)
Event Information
This edition of the Potpourri Challenge is unique. After spending the last few months indoors, it’s time to lace up and try running outdoors. Currently running outdoor in large numbers, in Corona times, is not advisable. So, we are breaking up the event into a multi-stage event. The format of Potpourri Challenge is group-based, hence we have decided to divide the event into multiple stages. Each running group will run on a route in their vicinity on a particular day (as mutually decided with respective group admins).
Race Categories-
The event will take place in June, July & August. The date of the event for the respective groups will be announced later.
10Km (6:00 am start, Cutoff time 90mins, age 18yrs & above)- 400/-
5Km Run (6:15 am start, age 18yrs & above)- 400/-
The registration fee is non-refundable. However, registration transfer to the fellow runner is allowed until 5 days before the event day.
Participant’s Takeaway-
Finisher medal, Timing certificate.
