Question 4

We regret to inform you that we are unable to assist with accommodation arrangements in Satara. As volunteers managing this event with limited resources, we focus on organizing the marathon itself. Accommodation options in our small city are typically booked well in advance by participants. Due to limited availability and lack of cooperation from hotel owners, we advise runners to secure accommodation before registering. Our two-step registration process allows pre-registered participants time to arrange accommodation before finalizing registration. If you struggle to find accommodation, consider staying with friends from the running community or family friends nearby. We are also exploring homestay options with local runners to support participants in need. Stay tuned for updates on our website regarding this matter.How should I train for the event?
