Self described slow runner auctioned ten kit spots for a Bengaluru half
Bhavya Gor argued that a slow runner keeps a logo on camera for longer and auctioned ten spots on his kit and skin for a half marathon in Bengaluru in December 2026. Opening prices ran from $120 for the quads to $500 for the back of the shorts, and any held spot could be taken by paying double. Bidding ended on 21 September with nothing raised against a $2,090 goal.

Lessons
- A funny angle drew thousands of views, but attention alone did not turn into a single bid.
- One week of bidding gave little time to reach brands directly.
- Confirm the race date before launch; conflicting dates make the offer look less certain.
