Chennai, Feb 10: Reinforcing its commitment to preventive wellness and community fitness, MGM Healthcare successfully powered the latest edition of the MGM Healthcare Trackathon, hosted by Chennai Runners at the iconic Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. The stadium came alive with energy, grit, and resilience as over 370 recreational runners and 240+ endurance athletes took on one of Chennai’s most demanding track-based running events.
