Milind Soman is running barefoot from Ahmedabad to Mumbai and giving us all kinds of fitness goals

Former supermodel, Bollywood actor and running enthusiast, Milind Soman, already christened –The Ironman after he completed a course of a 3.8 km swim, an 180.2 km cycle ride and a 42.2 km run in just 15 hours in the toughest triathlon in Zurich, has now taken up a new challenge.

The 50-year-old is running the 570-km-long stretch between Ahmedabad and Mumbai via Silvassa, barefoot for the Great India Run, which calls itself the country’s first multi-city ultra marathon.

Soman started his run from July 26 onwards and managed to complete a massive distance of 67 kms on the first day to reach Anand.

On the second day he completed another 62 kms. In a video posted on his Facebook page, Soman is seen running as if he’s on his daily morning jog- the fact that he’s barefoot doesn’t seem to bother him at all.

He also points out how the weather is humid- all while running between two cities BAREFOOT. Soman is expected to reach Mumbai by August 7.



Here’s wishing him a fun run!

If this doesn’t give you fitness goals, nothing will.
