Dear all, As you recall earlier; I wrote on completing half marathon 21KM with zero touch as blind runner only relying on voice guidance issued by fellow runner accompanying me. I also did apply for Limka book of record but they rejected my application as they do not have this specific category. I send several email prior to event whould I capture this entire thing on video or photographs. Sadly did not received any reply but went ahead with application process. Feeling very sad and I don't want to quit this mission. Any advise on how should I deal with this disapppointment. thanks and regards Asif

Apologies for the inordinate delay in responding to you. While we appreciate your efforts and talents, we regret to inform you that we would not be able to process your application further. We currently do not have a category specific to completing zero touch half-marathon distances and as shared on your visit to our office, the complete video footage of the claim is not available. Complete and uncut video footage would be an essential part of evidence, in case the category was available. In light of the same, we would not be able to process your claim further. Thank you for your interest in Limca Book of Records! All the best for your future attempts.
