The Dream Run, or 6km event, at the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2023, passed through Marine Drive on Sunday. Over its 18 editions so far, the Mumbai Marathon has showcased some of Mumbai’s iconic – and often most scenic – spaces. While the minimum age limit to participate in this event was 12 years, there was no upper limit.
