Our Advisors

Coach Ravinder Singh

Advisor

Ravinder Singh, popularly known as Coach, is the catalyst behind creating the most revolutionary running environments in India. A marathoner, fitness coach and mentor to the budding running enthusiasts, it is befitting to call him the ‘thinking machine’ in the world of Running.

It’s not just because he championed the art of inspiring masses towards the journey of fitness and running. It’s because of his humble – determined – innovative attitude towards bringing ‘Running’ to the most unexpected and average household in Delhi, NCR and beyond.
He strongly believes that running events, like marathons, are the only places one will find equality and inclusivity at the same time. Because at the start and finish lines you, the college student, the CEO and the people from the nearest village are all the same. They are just talking to each other about running.

Running builds a sense of community and camaraderie, rather than competition. Ravinder hopes to help grow this community as much he can.
