Berlin Marathon 2024
Tokyo Marathon 2025
What’s your dream?
For me, it was to run a Marathon - not just any marathon, but one of the “World Marathon Majors”
I didn’t stop at one, I completed three.
2023 New York Marathon
2024 Berlin Marathon
2025 Tokyo Marathon
Along the way, I discovered the true power of having a clear goal, a structured plan, and the discipline to keep showing up, even when it’s tough.
What was the biggest lesson?
“Never stop. Just keep moving forward.”
And the cherry on top?
I earned an official “World Ranking” in my age group - 27,645 globally and 1,435 in India.
Not the fastest time, but every second was earned with heart and grit, and I’m proud of it.
These medals on my wall aren’t just about finish lines.
They’re about focus, resilience, and believing it's never too late to chase something big.
So, what’s your dream? What’s your next step toward making it real?

From 10K to the World Majors 🏁
I began running in 2019, just before the pandemic. At first, it was slow progress. When I finally completed my first 10K, I asked myself: What’s next?
That’s when I discovered the World Marathon Majors, New York, London, Berlin, Tokyo, Chicago, and Boston.
In 2021, I applied for both New York and Chicago lotteries. Weeks later:
✅ Chicago 2022 – Accepted
✅ New York 2022 – Accepted
The problem? I had barely gone beyond 10 km in training. Running two back-to-back majors was chasing two rabbits. You won’t catch either.
So, I postponed New York to 2023.
That decision taught me something important: having a clear goal, a plan, and focus makes all the difference.

My First Marathon – And That Too in New York 🗽
By 2023, the plan was set. Flights booked, family ready, and belief stronger than training. My longest run? Just 25 km.
But on race day, something magical happened. From the very first kilometer, the New York crowd lifted me by cheering, clapping, calling our names, holding posters. Their energy carried me step by step.
That’s how I completed my very first marathon in New York.
The biggest lesson?
“Never stop. Just keep moving forward.”
Those 42.2 km weren’t just about crossing a finish line. They were about focus, resilience, and proving to myself that it’s never too late to chase something big.
