Just like in my cadet days, we incorporate high-intensity, quick-fire drills—like mountain climbers, lunges, and jump squats—right before our runs. It is not just about getting a sweat on; it is about building the mental switch you need to push through the last 5 kilometers of a marathon when your legs are begging you to stop. My time at Rashtriya Military School shaped more than just my fitness; it defined how I view life and leadership. The school motto, 'Sheelam Param Bhushanam'—Character is the highest virtue—is the foundation of everything I do at the Road to Trail Club. When you join my squad, you aren't just following a training plan. You are adopting a commando mindset. Whether we are doing tempo runs at Cubbon Park or tackling the inclines at Nandi Hills, we bring the same level of focus and intensity to every session. I treat my runners like my own platoon. We show up on time, we support each other during the hard climbs, and we hold each other accountable. We mix traditional endurance running with functional military conditioning, which means you will see a lot of stairs, public inclines, and bodyweight circuits. It is tough, sure, but it is also where the real transformation happens. If you are looking for a coach who will push you to find your 'beast mode' while keeping the environment fun and inclusive, then welcome to the club. Let's get you race-ready, the commando way. ## About Sujith Kumar I am Sujith, or Captain, as most know me. My coaching at Road to Trail Club is built on the same commando mindset I learned at Rashtriya Military School. We do not just log miles; we build the discipline to handle any challenge on the road.
