I don't just stand on the sidelines shouting instructions. I run with you, train with you, and race to win. See how my personal race results fuel the training plans I build to help you get FITTER, FASTER, STRONGER.

About Coach on the Podium: Leading by Example

My coaching isn't about handing you a generic schedule and checking in once a month. Whether we are tackling hill sprints at KTPO or long endurance sessions at Cubbon Park, I run every drill alongside you. I’ll provide immediate, real-time feedback on your form—'Seedha daud, sir upar'—because fixing your head position and landing mechanics early is the only way to prevent the kind of recurring injuries that sideline most runners.

Consistent podium finishes in Bengaluru races. — Approved by the tribe
