Tata Steel XLRI Peace Run

 

People of Jamshedpur came out in large number to participate in the Tata Steel XLRI Peace run on 21 Feb morning at 0700 Hrs. The atmosphere was electrifying and one could see people of all ages and sections of society coming out to show their solidarity and support the cause of Peace. The event was organized by CIIYi of XLRI.
The race had three categories for participation-

Tata Steel XLRI Peace Run Short Route (1 km in distance)

Tata Steel XLRI Peace Run Long Route (5 km in distance)
Among the 5 prizes, three were bagged by GMPians-
1. 1st Men - Shreerang Joshi
2. 1st Women - Deepti Chand

Tata Steel XLRI Peace Run Long Route Group (5 km in distance)
1st Group – Ankit Chordia, Bahvin Dalal, Suraj Kumar Singh

However, we managed to win among the XL group. The real winners were children from Tata Sports Academy who beat even the prize winners in our group comprehensively. Kudos to their spirit! With the faculties, families and students coming out in large numbers, the event was a great beginning to the Sunday.

But in GMP, we not only work hard but party even harder. So the same evening, the winners threw up the party for the batch. The party gave a breather to students reeling under the pressure of placements and studies.
