With over 60,000 fans expected to participate in the historic 20th edition of the Mumbai Marathon, which will be run on January 19, the organisers of the race in an attempt to drum up support have invited fans to join in celebrating the indomitable spirit of Mumbaikars by Striking the Gong.  

A tradition steeped in symbolism, the Striking of the Gong marks an auspicious beginning, embodying gratitude and recognizing the collective efforts that have shaped the marathon’s legacy.
