How to build up and prepare for an Ultra Trail Race in the hillsġ. Come and discover yourself and forever be transformed at the Khanabadosh 100! I bring both my experience as well as my emotions to the race management and encourage maximum people to take part and follow their calling, just like I did. A truly spectacular race set in one of the most beautiful and scenic locales in our country. It is a privilege for me to be associated with the Khanabadosh 100 -The Nomad’s Trail. I have the highest esteem for all the other runners who stood with me at the start line in every race and surprisingly just a few days of association in the wilderness leads to enduring comraderie and friendships. These races make you appreciate the small joys of life, and celebrate the indomitable human spirit. I ensured I never suffered my Sahara plight again making sure I trained adequately and had the correct gear including, hydration,shoes, socks etc. While I was convinced I would never ever indulge in such madness ever again, here I am 9 years later having done 12 more races sinces! I managed to finish all the races in the 4 desert series and experienced the beauty of the Atacama desert, the Gobi in ChinaĪnd Mongolia, and the breathtaking beauty of icy Antarctica. The spirit of the race elevated me and there was no way but forward towards the finish line. I was sharing my suffering and funnily enough my exhilaration with scores of other runners. However when I looked around I wasnt alone.

It was a daily battle with the hot blistering wind which burnt my skin to a crisp, as I plodded knee deep in sand on dunes almost 100 feet The physical pain and hardship of losing 7 toe nails and the blood blisters which had shredded my feet were a great equalizer. I had to push myself beyond anything I had ever done. The race for me was a life changing experience. Since I love the outdoors, ultra trail running seemed to be the logical path forward and I registered for the 250 kms Sahara race in Egypt. I wanted to go beyond marathon running and seek new challenges. My foray into ultra marathon racing came about quite by chance in 2011.
