As a runner or sportsman?

I never participatd in any sports events. In fact, during my school days, I rarely took part in any sports activities. It's astonishing for me to be here today, having discovered my self for running and cycling at this stage in my life. It's a reminder that we often underestimate our capabilities, and we may miss out on opportunities if we don't find outselves.

I continued to pursue my passion for running, participating in various events, and savoring the joy and camaraderie that came with them. I celebrated my accomplishments, captured memories through photographs, and shared them on social media, relishing the appreciation and encouragement from friends and followers. This motivated me to run more and participate in more events. It all began when I was around 45 years old, and now, I'm here today.

Engaging discussions with fellow runners from the Tiders team have been incredibly enriching, providing valuable insights, and broadening my understanding of various aspects of running. These interactions have introduced me to new approaches, including optimal shoe selection, exploring scenic routes, perfecting pace, and refining practice techniques.

I'm also deeply grateful for the expert guidance, encouragement, and constructive suggestions from my coach, Poonam Shravage. Her training has been instrumental in my growth as a runner.

I'd imagine sharing my accomplishments with friends and on social media, and reveling in the appreciation and encouragement that followed. These thoughts would often allowing me to complete my runs with even greater joy and satisfaction, and a renewed enthusiasm for running.
