RUN FOR AIR WARRIORS

The majority of people in the world have long forsaken efforts to maintain their physical health. Although there has been a return to “healthy living” in the past decade seen through a rise in the popularity of health blogs and trend diets, the majority of people still have little to no interest in such things. The mass ignorance of health  is one of the greatest tragedies of our time. For a society that places so much emphasis on productivity and workplace efficiency, we have forgotten that health is what makes us effective in the first place. To promote health awareness City Road Runners are organizing one more health run this time "Run for Air Warriors " dedicated to 11 Sqn also known as Rhinos.

Right from its inception, the Squadron has been at the forefront in rendering continuous service to the nation. The Squadron was located at Vadodara in July 2000 and the aircraft of the Squadron have been a familiar sight in the states of Gujarat, Maharashtra and Rajasthan ever since. During relief operations post the Gujarat earthquake in Jan 01, over 200 tons of relief material was air lifted and 1492 survivors were rescued. The Squadron also played a major role in the relief operations during the recent Gujarat floods.

The Squadron will be celebrating its 68th anniversary this year. On commemoration of the momentous occasion, the City Road Runners will also be conducting a Health Run with the Motto of 

’RUN FOR AIR WARRIORS ... to promote the importance of keeping fit and healthy.
