CM Runs 21 Kms In Just 2 Hrs

Twenty one kilometres in just two hours. Wondering what these numbers are?

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah completed half-marathon (21 km) in the given time, exhibiting extraordinary fitness level even at the age of 54.

Omar did prove that age is just a number and it is the mindset which drives any person towards their goals.

Omar Abdullah pulled off this feat at the Kashmir International Marathon, which he flagged off on Sunday.

The first international athletic event in the valley saw the participation of 2000 athletes from 13 countries. Over 35 local athletes and 59 international runners, including Asian gold medallists and some of the best from Europe and Africa, participated in the marathon.

The Jammu and Kashmir Tourism Department organised the event to showcase Kashmir as a safe and peaceful destination capable of hosting global events.
