63 yr old Virat Bhushan, 54 yr old Suvir Khullar gear up 20th Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon

New Delhi, Sep 09 (UNI) Biggest stars of Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon’s newly launched VDHM Stars Club Virat Bhushan and Suvir Khullar are gearing up for the landmark 20th edition of the Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon, a prestigious World Athletics Gold Label Race that they both have not missed in the last 20 years of their life.
The VDHM Stars Club, launched last month, honours the most dedicated runners of the Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon,- those who have completed the Half Marathon (21.097 km) race category 15 times or more. Virat and Suvir are its most accomplished members, having been part of every edition of the annual event since 2005. The exclusive 40-member club consists of passionate and consistent runners who embody the true spirit of distance running and have become ambassadors for active living, contributing valuable insights and inspiring the broader running community. While Virat and Suvir are the most active members with all 19 Vedanta Delhi Half Marathons under their belt. Rashmi Mohanty and Shruti Saxena are the most decorated women runners as they both will be running their 15th VDHM on Oct 12.
At 63, while most people envision a quiet, retired life filled with comfort, Delhi’s Virat is finding that comfort in running—a habit he has diligently followed since 1978. "For 48 years, I have made running a part of my life, and there is no stopping, there is no end, and there is no finish line. It's such a persistent thing, it's a part of my journey, a part of the process of going on and on," he says.
