We help you reconstruct your health and running foundation so you’re ready to go the distance. Ready to begin? Let’s do this together.
We’re also the proud organizers of some of India’s most exciting ultramarathons—OOTYULTRA (9th edition on 22-Mar-2026, Sunday), Bison Ultra, an ITRA-certified trail race (7th edition on 8-Jun-2025, Sunday), and the Madurai Ultra. These aren’t just races—they’re powerful journeys through breathtaking trails, hillscapes, and heritage-rich towns that blend the thrill of running with exploration, sports tourism, and cultural immersion.
Through these experiences, we nurture the spirit of the #ultramalaivasi community—a vibrant group of runners, volunteers, and locals who love the mountains, cherish the outdoors, and are passionate about giving back. Our races celebrate not only nature’s raw beauty but also the rich traditions, stories, and hospitality of the regions we run in. By connecting with the land and its people, we aim to preserve their charm while creating shared value for everyone involved.
Come, be a part of something meaningful. Let’s run with purpose, together.
Beyond Elites
What if the most important race isn’t for a medal, but for a mission?
The world celebrates its most decorated athletes, but what about those who compete for a reason? Beyond Elites is a tribute to the unsung heroes of India’s sports community. It brings together untold stories from a diverse group of individuals—irrespective of gender, age, or physical capability—who have used their athletic journey to create a legacy of purpose.
You’ll meet the senior athlete who found renewed vigor through competition, the recreational player who used their passion to build a community, and the para-athlete who defied limitations. You’ll also hear from coaches and mentors—the silent forces behind every achievement—showing that the greatest victories are often personal, and the most incredible journeys begin with one purposeful step or a dream.
Beyond Elites is for anyone who believes that a single act of courage can create a ripple of change, proving that the true spirit of sport lives in every person who dares to play.
