The event, which is named after Virat Kohli’s jersey number 18, is the country’s first 18-kilometer race. Through the run, his supporters will be able to get to know him better and get to know a less-publicized aspect of his personality.
Kohli, owner of one8, said, “I am elated to launch the one8 Run and provide everyone with an opportunity to experience the thrill of running. The run aligns with our vision of promoting a healthier lifestyle and encourages everyone to take the first step towards fitness. I am looking forward to a great participation.”
Jogesh Lulla, Co-Founder & COO Cornerstone Sport, said, “As part of Cornerstone and one8’s vision to encourage people to take up fitness as a hobby, we have launched the one8 Run. It gives us immense pleasure to take Virat Kohli’s vision forward and introduce the 18km Run for the first time in India.”
The run is slated for the Nice Road Toll Plaza, Dwaraka Nagar, Hosakerehalli, Bengaluru, with the following race timings: 18 km: 6:00am; 10 km: 6:30am; 5 km: 7:45am. The one8 Run in Bengaluru is just the start of what the event’s sponsors have in store for the campaign to promote fitness. This year, there will be three additional runs—one in Bengaluru and the other two in other cities. Many more cities are expected to see the run the following year.
