“Simran Jeet Singh Keeps Going” 😉… big congratulations!!

(And Avtar Singh Tinne’s 34 straight marathons in 76 years is truly impressive too!!)

Thanks for sharing this victory. It reminds me that we need to keep going in some way with our lives, and remembering someone is a way to do that.

My son died 27 years ago today at 19 while hiking & camping on the west coast. I am writing a memoir about him. This is my marathon. Thank you for your inspiration.

Thank you for taking time to share. I appreciate it. Grief goes on forever and I am trying to capture it in positive ways. It is love actually. So much love!

I loved reading The Light We Give.

Marathons are definitely not for all of us, I’ve been a runner for decades and I find it daunting thinking of running this distance. It’s takes grit and what a memory to run for. Baba Fauja Singh has left a legacy for all of us about determination and what accomplishments look like. Congratulations Simran.
