Ram Gopal Kothari, quoted in a press release published by NDTV · 2026
Ram described the changing coastal and volcanic scenery as exceptional. Rolling paved roads gave way to difficult technical trails, making the race demanding despite mild weather. Finishing after months of preparation was especially satisfying.
Source context and limitations
A 2026 full-marathon account carried in an unedited promotional press release, as NDTV explicitly discloses. It celebrates the runner’s achievement and is not an independent newsroom review. The route combined roads and volcanic trails; older Atacama desert editions are different courses. Current conditions are not inferred.
