Jamshedpur, Aug. 25 : XLRI Jamshedpur will be the host of the 8th edition of �Jamshedpur Run� scheduled on August 27. The Jamshedpur Run is a mini-marathon which brings together the entire city.
The run kicks off from the XLRI campus and passes through Jubilee Park and other locations. College students, professors, trainee athletes, professionals, dignitaries along with members of the XLRI family unite in this run and the event spreads a feeling of joy and happiness among all.
The event is being organised by CII-Yi, XLRI and Ensemble-Valhalla, the fest organizing team of XLRI this year.
The theme of the event will be �Run For JSR�, an invitation to everyone who aspires to work for the development and well-being of Jamshedpur. The theme stems from the inner enthusiasm and spirit that each resident at the �Steel City� possesses.
