The Goa Marathon 2025, an annual event organized to promote fitness and support social causes, took place on February 9th at Miramar Beach Circle, Goa. This year’s marathon witnessed an incredible turnout, with approximately 1,400 participants registering across different race categories, including the 21K half marathon, 10K run, 5K run, and a special school run.
The event was flagged off by Matthew Kurian, the founder of El Shaddai Charitable Trust, setting the stage for an inspiring and energetic day. The marathon began early in the morning, with the first flag-off for the 21K run at 6:00 AM. Runners described the route as scenic and well-organized, with many expressing their appreciation for the beautifully designed medal.
Adding to the high-energy atmosphere, Sravesh Murgaonkar, a renowned Zumba instructor, led an exhilarating warm-up session, ensuring all participants were pumped up and ready for the race. The enthusiasm of the crowd and the well-planned arrangements made the event an unforgettable experience.
The marathon was made possible with the generous support of our sponsors, including Storia, Bisleri, Linc Pen, Incredible Goa, Burraa, Deserts and More, Zuno General Insurance, Bosio Hospital, Physiogears, and RunIndia. Their contributions played a crucial role in ensuring the success of the event, providing essential support such as hydration stations, medical assistance, and event logistics.
Beyond being a test of endurance and strength, the Goa Marathon is a celebration of community spirit and social responsibility. Proceeds from the event will go towards supporting the initiatives of El Shaddai Charitable Trust, helping transform the lives of underprivileged children through education, shelter, and empowerment programs.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the participants, sponsors, volunteers, and supporters who made the Goa Marathon 2025 a resounding success. Your enthusiasm and dedication continue to inspire positive change, making each stride count towards a brighter future.
