🚀 New PB locked by 51 minutes (Ladakh) !!!
Baramati Power Marathon, 2025 Victory !
I powered through the Baramati Power Marathon and hit a massive personal best of 4:41:10 ! This was a tough fight—battling both the sneaky elevation and the punishing humidity every step of the way. But my training, guided by my incredible Coach @trainwithyosa27 held up. Special thanks to the event organizers @baramati.powermarathon and the volunteers whose energy was pure fuel! I was moving strong and staying comfortable in my gear from @aguanteactive, which truly made a difference in these challenging conditions.
Finishing strong and claiming that beautiful, well-deserved medal felt incredible. The post-race luxury in the VIP Lounge for brunch was the perfect recovery. A massive achievement earned through pure sole effort and the right support!
This time has successfully breached the necessary threshold, granting me clearance to proceed to the ultimate ultra-mission.
#baramati will come stronger, ever !!

Standing where kings once walked. In awe of the Sahyadri heritage. 🚩🏰
Visiting my native fort twice in just 10 days during the auspicious days of ongoing Navratri brings a feeling that words simply cannot capture. There is a profound energy in these ancient mountains—every stone breathes history, and every trail echoes the footsteps of legendary warriors. Experiencing the divine grace during Navratri right here at home, surrounded by the timeless beauty of the Sahyadris, is truly grounding and empowering.
The heritage of our soil is eternal.

It means I’ve brought home what I truly loved.
I didn’t just get these three. I earned them. Through every blister, every altitude-starved breath, and every grueling kilometer in the mountains. This is years of sweat, sacrifice, and pure endurance wrapped in a few inches of metal.
Bringing them home, holding them here at my lovely Rajgad Fort, feels like a full-circle moment. The spirit of these hills runs deep.
The haul:
🥇Robert Mtshali Medal, Comrades Marathon (South Africa)
🥈Khardungla Challenge (World’s Highest Ultra)
🥉Ladakh Marathon
This isn’t the finish line. It’s just fuel for the next one.
For those looking for a sign: chase what you love.

This is not just a race story. This is the best race of my life — the Khardung La Challenge.
I started with one intention: victory. 72 km. World’s highest race. 17,618 ft.
Pain hit like a storm. Legs burning. Lungs screaming. But I stopped, folded my hands, and worshipped the Khardung La top like God. I begged for strength… and the mountain answered.
At the summit I stood in silence and saluted it with everything I had. That moment still lives inside me.
After the top, the yellow jacket went on. Then the finish line — medal in hand, Tiranga flying, and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s flag waving high. I have never felt more complete.
Khardung gave me a lot. I learnt a lot. Khardung made me strong.
The organisation, the route, the climate, the medal… everything was pure magic. Simply the best experience of my running life.
Then came the Ladakh Full Marathon. It felt elevated and complete — only because of the blessings from K-top.
Khardung La is not a race you finish. It is a race that finishes something inside you… and starts something greater.
Be humble. Be proud. Be Thankful…
Proud finisher. Bib #7200. Khardung La Challenge.
Jai Hind. Har Har Mahadev. Jai Shivaji Maharaj! 🇮🇳🚩

Standing at 17,982 ft
Where the air is thin, the views are wild, and the pride hits different 🇮🇳
Khardung La — one of the highest motorable roads on the planet.
Not just a destination… a statement.
Every step up here reminds you:
The higher you climb, the stronger you become.
Grateful. Grounded. Unstoppable.

Long before your knees expire, you take to the trail—crossing misty bends, green hills, and ancient stone ruins. Every ridge brings a different shade of effort, a quiet breather, and a reminder of why we keep moving. Hit the trails and explore every mountain horizon while your legs are eager.

When the official race photos land and you get to relive the entire high all over again! 📸🏃‍♂️
Demanded power from the Himalayas on the brutal climb, then unleashed full speed on the descent to cross the finish at 10:43.
17,618 ft of pure emotion captured in pixels! 🇮🇳

22 days away from family and comfort—the longest stretch I’ve ever spent away.
High altitude and thin air test your body, but the distance tests your mind. Every tough mile and heavy breath at 18,000 feet led to this moment: standing at the finish line with 72+42 km of pure grit behind me.
Struck the pose, held the tri-color high, but only then did it hit me: it’s time to go home, eagerly! ✈️🏠
I love you, Ladakh. Will come again to your ancient monasteries. ❤️✨
beyond all of the above my mother tounge says : मला घरी जायचंय 🥰
