Every celeb worth a cause will be running for the Mumbai Marathon this Sunday. It's that day of the year when you realise that Mumbai does have its share of real heroes.

The Mumbai Marathon is expected to have over 30,000 participants in six different categories, which include the 42 km Full Run, 21 km Half Run, 7 km Dream Run, Corporate Challenge, Senior Citizens Race and the Race for the Physically Challenged.

We caught up with some of our television heroes to find out what the event means to them and how they prepare for the Big day.
