A Chandigarh woman, Asmita, has gained significant social media attention for completing a 26.26-kilometer run that traced the number "26" across the city map to welcome the New Year 2026. The run, which began near RBI Park and traversed multiple sectors, required meticulous planning and consistent pacing. Social media users praised her creativity and endurance, while also noting how Chandigarh's organized grid layout and straight roads uniquely facilitated such a precise fitness challenge, a feat many found difficult to imagine in other Indian cities.
