This year, in the fourth edition of Airtel Run For Education, she is participating as a pacer in the 21 km category with a pace time of 2 hours. Completing a marathon would be a commendable accomplishment for anyone to be proud of but like Mrs. Anjali, adds more color to the event. She has now taken the responsibility to spread awareness and encourage more and more people to lend their helping hands towards the less privileged followed by maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle. We are extremely honored to have her as a pacer at our event and we appreciate her efforts to make our world a better place to live. She is an inspiration to many women and we hope that she will continue to be with us in our future endeavors.
