We are a registered non-profit society formed by a group of passionate runners with a shared vision to promote a healthy and active lifestyle among the people of Palakkad.
Our journey began nearly 18 years ago with just four members. Today, we have grown into a vibrant and inclusive community of over 1000 runners of all ages, with new members joining us regularly. Together, we have helped place Palakkad on the global running map.
Our core mission is to encourage running as a pathway to better physical and mental well-being, while fostering a strong sense of community and belonging.
Driven by this vision and our commitment to promote running culture, we have instituted an annual flagship event, the Rubfila Palakkad Marathon, which is held every year.
We are excited to announce the next edition of the Marathon, which will take place on Sunday, 6th December 2026.
We warmly invite you to be a part of this event and experience the scenic beauty and vibrant spirit of the route.
