Mumbai Marathon 2026 — Full Marathon Experience

This is my 11th year running the Tata Mumbai Marathon — and the madness is still going on! My running journey actually started because of a friend — Himanshu, a.k.a. Pacer Baba in the marathon world. He told me to try running… and that one conversation changed everything. When I started, I had zero knowledge about running and no idea about running gear. Woolland shoes, full track pant, cotton t-shirt… hydration/gel ka naam bhi nahi suna tha 😅 My first Mumbai full marathon was a DNF. On the Worli Sea Link I got a calf cramp — and I didn’t even know what a cramp was! Somehow I made it till Bandra Reclamation, couldn’t walk, crossed the road and took an auto home. Next day Himanshu completed his race successfully. That moment hit hard — and that day I decided I’ll keep running this marathon every year until I finish strong again. Since then I’ve completed 100+ running events and the Mumbai Marathon has become a ritual… a relationship… and a little bit of madness ❤️ Same route. Same city. Same sea link. New memories every year. Main fastest nahi hoon… par main har saal yahin hoon. #MumbaiMarathon #TataMumbaiMarathon #MarathonVlog #RunningStory #DNFtoFinish #IndianRunners #MarathonMadness #RunningCommunity #SeaLinkRun #RunnerLife #FullMarathon #11YearsRunning #tatamumbaimarathon2026 #tmm2026 #indiarunning
