    Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena: The landmark 20th edition of the Delhi Half Marathon will be flagged off by the Chief Minister, Rekha Gupta, and Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena, as over 40,500 participants take to the streets for Asia’s premier road race. The world’s most prestigious half-marathon will be flagged off from Delhi’s iconic Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Sunday.

    With a total prize purse of USD 2,60,000, some of the world’s finest international and Indian elite runners will be in the fray. In addition, a bonus awaits those who break the event record of 58 minutes and 53 seconds (held by Ethiopia's Amedework Walelegn), along with an additional USD 2,000 for a sub-60-minute finish.

    Among Indian athletes, Rs 2 lakh will be awarded to any runner who sets a new event record, which stands at 1 hour and 30 seconds (held by Avinash Sable).
