A Look Back at the Journey  

 

The Morais Trichy Marathon began in 2022, a visionary initiative by the Morais Group to raise awareness about the urgent issue of drug abuse in Trichy City. The first two editions, themed *Run for a Drug-Free Trichy*, were held in collaboration with the Trichy City Police and were a resounding success. With over 3,000 participants each year, including students, fitness enthusiasts, and residents of Trichy district, the event highlighted the transformative power of running events.  

 

Winners of the previous marathons were celebrated with cash prizes, medals, and certificates, distributed by Thiru. Karthikeyan IPS, the then Commissioner of City Police. The Morais Trichy Marathon has since become a hallmark event in the city, fostering unity and promoting wellness.
