RU2016 to 2021 — five years of pure domination in ultra running.
I was not chasing marathons. I was focused on ultra road and trail and during that phase I delivered everything through performance:
First Indian sub-8 hour 100K,
multiple course records & FKT,
podiums across the country,
podiums in trail races abroad,
felicitated by the Prime Minister of India,
represented India three times World & Asia,
and fastest Indian at Comrades in both up and down run.
While many of today’s experts were still learning “R” of running, I already sat benchmarks for them and brought life in ultra running.
Then I shifted into building athletes. And the ones I touched grew.
Sad part today is, many people do not want to improve themselves and they also cannot tolerate seeing these young ones grow. But that changes nothing for me.
I will keep building.
I will keep giving.
And I will keep letting the work speak.
