Bengaluru, March 25, 2025 – The eagerly awaited Miles4Meals 2025 marathon, hosted by IIIT-Bangalore in collaboration with Akshaya Patra Foundation, is set to take place on April 6, 2025, at the IIIT-Bangalore campus. This 5K & 10K run is not just about fitness—it’s a mission to end hunger among schoolchildren.
Every participant will help provide nutritious mid-day meals to underprivileged students, ensuring they stay healthy and focused in school. In 2024, the event successfully supported 5,500 children, backed by 200+ runners, 50+ volunteers, and multiple sponsors. This year, the goal is even more ambitious.
To boost participation, a ₹1,50,000 prize pool awaits top runners. Athletes will receive RFID-tracked bibs, ensuring accurate race timing, along with medals and lifetime achievement certificates. Last year’s most inspiring participant, 95-year-old Mr. N.S. Dattatreya, proved that passion, not age, defines the runner’s spirit.
The event offers more than just a race—runners can enjoy Zumba warm-ups, an exhibition zone, exciting games, food stalls, and merchandise booths. Medical assistance will be on standby for everyone’s safety.
💙 Lace up, hit the track, and help fuel young dreams!
