New Delhi Marathon: Kartik, Nirmaben Take Home Men & Women Crown; 3 Elite Men Qualify For Asian Games
The New Delhi Marathon: Mumbai’s Kartik Karkera scorched the route all along the 11th edition of the New Delhi Marathon to annex the prestigious crown here on Sunday.
Completing the 42.2 kilometres as the world slept in a remarkable timing of two hours and thirteen minutes (02:13:10), Karkera comfortably surpassed the qualifying mark for the Asian Games in Japan later this year.
A doctor by profession, the 28-year-old had to stave off a concerted bid by Gopi Thonakal (02:13:12) and Man Singh (02:13:15) to eventually take the top position on the podium.
