" I am from the Powai batch, I enjoy running and finally got a platform. This is a great initiative by the Mumbai police as we can run every Sunday. It's really great to get the feel of the streets after lockdown," said Preeta, a participant at the event. The runners also thanked the officials for arranging an event that gave them an opportunity to be fit and closer to the streets after lockdown. The Sunday Street Marathon is going to be a weekend event, where every Sunday, runners can have a thorough run on the streets. The officials also informed that an entire stretch of seven to eight kilometres would be blocked as participants pour in for the upcoming Sunday marathons.
