Jodhpur Edition | Run with the Spirit of the Air Warriors

Join the 2nd Edition of the Sekhon Indian Air Force Marathon 2026 – Jodhpur Edition, a prestigious running event dedicated to the memory and extraordinary courage of Flying Officer Nirmal Jit Singh Sekhon, PVC, the sole recipient of the Param Vir Chakra from the Indian Air Force.

🇮🇳 A Tribute to a True Air Warrior

During the 1971 Indo-Pak War, Flying Officer Nirmal Jit Singh Sekhon displayed unparalleled courage while defending the Srinagar Airfield. Flying his Folland Gnat, he engaged six Pakistani Sabre jets and fought against overwhelming odds, displaying extraordinary bravery and an unwavering commitment to duty.

His sublime heroism, supreme leadership and complete disregard for personal safety continue to represent the highest traditions of the Indian Air Force.

The Sekhon Indian Air Force Marathon carries forward this legacy by bringing together runners, fitness enthusiasts, armed forces personnel and citizens from across the country.

More than a marathon, it is a celebration of courage, endurance, discipline and patriotism.

Inspired by the speed of a fighter jet, the endurance of an air warrior and the spirit of a united India, this run is an opportunity to push your limits, honour a hero and run for the nation.
