I RAN A MARATHON! – STORY OF OUR EMPLOYEE BHAGWAT

I have been fond and passionate of running long distances (half marathons, marathons) for last 12 years.

I ran my first half marathon (21.095 Km) in 2011 in Delhi. And this was because of inspiration from my cousin brother who was then running these races.

I had ran numerous half marathons, marathons and also a handful of ultra-marathons during these years. 

Running helped me a lot in my professional and personal life. It makes me efficient in my professional life and it makes me more humble as a human being

Emotionally, Mentally and Spiritually, I improved a lot since I started running.

In last 4 years, I have trained my body and mind to run those Ultra distances (any distance more than a marathon  i.e. 42.195KMS).

And this all started when I get in touch with some good runners of New-Gurgaon. My running group “LIMITLESS RUNNERS” and “DHAAVAK” have very brilliant runners, who inspires and motivates me each and every day to do better than the previous day.

Last year, 2022, I did a MILER: 100 MILES: 160 KMS: THE HELL RACE: THE BORDER RUN (https://thehellrace.com/the-border/), which is a dream come true for every ultra-runner. I manage to secure 4^th position in the category. This run is one of the toughest race in India. It tests your grit and will, where temperature varies from extreme hot (35 degree Celsius)  to extreme cold (3 degree Celsius ).
