ASICS RUNNING GEAR: As an added motivation, Sports Goods Partner ASICS has introduced the exclusive Running Gear for all the Full Marathon participants.
THE MUMBAI PORTAL: Today, SCMM is beyond a sporting event. The reason for its existence is that the SCMM symbolizes the way the human spirit survives challenges of all kinds. The Mumbai Portal aims to showcase this spirit of SCMM and the real heroes of India to the world!
The Mumbai Portal is a real life portal between Mumbai and 20 other cities in the world and it is the first of its kind in India. It is essentially a shipping container painted gold and equipped with immersive audiovisual technology. When an individual enters one Portal, they see a person in another Portal live and full-body, as if in the same room.
While new technologies allow us to connect across boundaries as never before, we too often use them to insulate ourselves in our own communities. By conversing through a Portal, participants step out of their comfort zones, talk to someone completely unrelated to their individual lives and discover the multitude of amazing things happening all over the world. For SCMM there will be a mix of programmed interactions and open hours for all Mumbaikars to come and experience the portal.
There are some great inspiring stories planned
– Major D.P. Singh, Indiaas first blade runner and marathoner will talk to a Syrian refugee hero based in Berlin; – Harish Iyer, Equal rights activist will share his story of grit and determination with Maria Bashir, First woman prosecuter in Afghanistan; – Harsha Bhogle will connect with a cricket star from Afghanistan who has used his passion to bring about a revolution in the country among others.
