There were more than 30 wheelchair participants among 25,000 others got there early this morning to run for a cause in the Delhi Marathon 2008. It was my first time to be one of them, when I started I never thought that I would be the first one who crossed the finish line within minimum time. As soon as I got there on finish line the media and lots of other people were cheering for me. It was nice to see the media attension on me and appreciation from the people.
The distance was 2.5 Km, I was able to cover the finish line in 18min and 36 sec.
My main cause to run in the Marathon was to encourage and motivate wheelchair users.
