30's to 40's was a drag life was meandering like a rudderless ship .At 40 ,I had this lofty, audacious dream to become a long distance runner,I was 92 kg's & could barely run 10 km's but I was determined , showed up every day & the rest you all know
It is never to late to start .

2013,struggling to run 10 km,2019 finishing a 161 km , without any sweat. You have keep trusting your process ,your purpose needs to be stronger than your excuses ,Only 1 percent can do this 99% will give up because they don't see immediate results . Transformation is always slow

First 5 km run , ran this to celeberate womenhood . This was the toughest , it was more walk than run , finished this in 45 mins at the age of 37 years , now can finish a 5 km in 21.29 mins at 45 - 8 years I showed up , you will always get better with age if you show up .

First 4 years just ran10 kms,considered people running 21 km's to be God , mustered some courage & ran my first 21 km in 2.46 mins , then ran 50 km , 84 km , 161 km in all in one year -Your mind has a tactical advantage , it tricks you in to believeing you cannot . It is a lier .

First 50 km in the blistering heat of Goa , everyone told me you will die , parents came to Goa anxious, worried. I completed in 7.30 hours , first reaction , Oh My God I am alive ! First time in my life felt a sense of accomplishment , there has been no turning back . #Ultra
