After 7 years of 'JBG Kolkata Trail Run,' we have now transformed into 'JBG Kolkata World 10K,' an event that has evolved to attract athletes of all stages, from seasoned runners to eager newcomers. This transition from JBG Kolkata Trail Run to JBG Kolkata World 10K signifies a milestone in our journey, representing our growth into a more widespread, global event. While we continue to cherish and showcase Kolkata's rich culture, we have opened our arms to participants from all corners of the world, creating a melting pot of diversity and unity on the track.
The roots of the Jai Balaji Group Kolkata Trail Run trace back to the year 2016 when it debuted as the annual flagship event Jai Balaji Group. The promotion and management of this event has been expertly handled by Sportiz, a sports event management company. Over the years, the event has not only gained popularity but has also become a focal point for the city's fitness enthusiasts. The metamorphosis into JBG Kolkata World 10K reflects our commitment to promoting a healthy and active lifestyle while embracing the global spirit of athleticism.
In the words of Nelson Mandela, “Sports have the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.” This sentiment resonates deeply with us as we endeavour to provide a platform for individuals from diverse backgrounds to break free from their demanding routines and bask in the joy of camaraderie and healthy competition. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of daily life, the JBG Kolkata World 10K serves as a reminder that the spirit of unity and the pursuit of excellence can bridge gaps and transcend boundaries.
