We are absolutely thrilled and immensely proud to celebrate the wonderful achievement of Banteilang Kharmuti, a 1st-year Vocational Education Training (VET) student at MRCSE! Banteilang successfully participated in and completed the 5K run at the prestigious 5th Sohra International Half Marathon, held on 4th September 2026. The mega event was organized by the Meghalaya State Olympic Association in collaboration with State Athletic Bodies, and recognized by the Athletics Federation of India (AFI).
Banteilang’s inspiring journey to the finish line is a beautiful example of community support and personal grit:
A special note of gratitude goes to Mr. T. Kharhujon (a parent of one of our school's students), whose kind support in handling the registration process paved the way for Banteilang's participation.
Showcasing incredible discipline, Banteilang caught the event management bus from Shillong Barik at the wee hour of 2:30 AM to make it to the starting point.
By 5:00 AM, he was at the designated starting line at Cherra Presbyterian School, Nongsawlia, well ahead of time. Banteilang courageously braved the rain, heavy fog, and mist along the famously scenic, winding routes of Sohra.
All his hard work, early morning sacrifices, and perseverance paid off beautifully as Banteilang crossed the finish line to claim a spectacular FINISHER'S MEDALLION!This is an incredibly proud moment for Banteilang, his family, and the entire school fraternity.Congratulations, Banteilang! Keep up the fantastic spirit, stay inspired, and keep on running!🎊🎉
