For 400 of the participants, the 1401 challenge was the first experience of continuous running over several days. Many participants who participated in the Tehrun Club challenge for the first time believed that they had never experienced this lifestyle and that the challenge has changed their lives in many ways.
For these people, the 14 days of Nowruz transformed from a repetitive and inactive holiday into a challenging and exciting two weeks where they did something they had never experienced before. On the other hand, because of excessive traveling during Nowruz, cities, alleys, and streets were almost empty and that became a factor so that the participants could understand the experience of running in different parts of their cities.

This year's challenge medal was different and was designed based on the group activity nature of the challenge. In fact, the independent medals, each of which could be a piece of a larger 4-piece medal, represented the group spirit of the challenge at the same time as the independence of each of the participants. Nowruz Challenge of Tehrun Club engulfs a motivation and goal in its heart every year, which is expressed with a slogan. This year, the turn of the century became the inspiration for the Tehrun Club's challenge slogan. "100 Years of Well-being" was a wish and a slogan that every runner tried to fulfill by running.
