The foothills of Aravallis are usually the refuge for peacocks, wild dogs, and the odd leopard. On Sunday morning, however, the hills were taken over by a different animal – man. Over 500 runners, young and old, took part in the Annual Trail Run in Gurgaon. The race was flagged off at 5.30am from Pathways World School, and the runners navigated the 10km Pathways Trail across several categories, ranging from a 4km walk to a half marathon. What made the run more challenging was the steep climb and descent along the trail as well as the rocky and uneven terrain.
