The inaugural edition of the Indian Navy Half Marathon (INHM) is scheduled to take place on 02 Feb 25 in New Delhi. This event is expected to attract participants from across the country competing in three race categories: 21.1 km Half Marathon, 10 km Run and 5 km Run, making it an inclusive event for runners of all calibers and backgrounds.

Preparations are underway to deliver an unforgettable experience for all participants. The event will be hosted at the iconic Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, with the race route covering India Gate and the historic Kartavya Path.

The event will be graced by distinguished personalities from the Defence Forces and civil society. This landmark event aims to promote health and fitness among participants from all walks of life, encouraging them to embrace physical activity and adopt an active lifestyle for overall well-being.

The event aspires to create a sense of camaraderie and competition, bringing people together to forge stronger bonds with the Indian Navy and among themselves. It also aims to inspire the youth to lead adventurous lives and consider joining the Indian Navy, a career synonymous with courage, discipline, and service to the nation.

The INHM is envisioned to become an annual event, joining the ranks of similar flagship runs conducted by the Navy in Mumbai, Visakhapatnam, and Kochi. Notably, runners who complete all four Navy marathons within a year will be honoured with the prestigious Navy Slam, a special souvenir engraved with medal designs of all four events.
