Ashva Running Club

Kasturi Rao is the name for Ordinary to Extraordinary at Ashva Running Club. Kasturi who is quite, simple by nature, who is also Conditioning and Strengthening coach at Ashva ran all the way from Bangalore to Kukke Subramanya Temple covering the distance of 285km under the guidance of none other than Ultra/Inter city running champion Mr. Giridhar Kamath.

Kasturi has never run a single marathon till date. But she set an example that women can do anything if they make up her mind. Kasturi being a young mother, wife and responsible coach took this challenge for herself and successfully completed with pride.

Ashva is very proud and happy about Kasturi's achievement and thank Giridhar Kamath for the support.

Mr Vinod and his wife Ms Asha another extraordinary couple in Ashva Running Club. These are again not at all a speed runners going behind time. But, so so dedicated towards consistentcy my God, it's unbelievable. Both started jogging 2years back and today's they completed Killer 50km Malnad Ultra. They never ever have given one single excuse for skipping training from start to till date. They took step by step approach by running 5k first and then to10k, 21k, 42k and today 50k.

Please join me in Congratulating this wonderful running couple for their awesome feat.

Please join me in congratulating Ram from Ashva Club for completing his World Majors today after his New York completion. He is the second person to achieve this feat besides Upen in the Club and joins one among hardly less than 50 in entire India. World Majors means who has run all 6 World Major Marathon.( Berlin, London, Tokyo, Chicago, Boston and New York)

What is great about Ram is, he is not fast runner like many of us, but he is just right example of real ametuer runner. Enjoys running and achieved one of the prestigious title.

Ashva is very happy and proud of him.
Many congratulations Ram
