Manikandan Seenichamy, a passionate marathon runner and a great motivator conducted Extentia’s recent breakfast talk on October 10. Having completed five Abbott World Marathon Majors, he will soon become a ‘Six Star Finisher’ after completing his sixth marathon next year. He took the audience through his fitness journey which surprisingly started when he got diagnosed with diabetes.
Focussed on health and fitness, the session not only covered physical well-being, but also the often neglected aspect of mental well-being. The audience learned about heart rate, dieting, marathon strategies, benefits of running as well as the dos and don’ts to be kept in mind before a person’s first marathon. The hour-long talk was especially beneficial as more than 40 Extentians are preparing for the Pune International Marathon on December 01.
