How it get started :
In my schooling days, I used to commute to my school on bicycle for 10k regularly, but after that, i was not that much active. Being in IT field & desk job, you don’t get much option to stay active, so i have to find an alternate way of staying fit and even though, it was in my late 30s, i have courage to start and then, one fine day i have joined the Baroda Running group. Then, on first International Yoga Day (21 June 2015), My Running journey towards a better health and fitness has started with a group run on sunday morning and that moment onwards, Running has been part of my integral life.
