One of the fittest couples in B-Town, Milind Soman and Ankita Konwar are living inspiration for all of us. The adventure running couple often runs together giving us some major couple fitness goals.
Now adding a feather to their already loaded cap, this time Milind Soman and Ankita Konwar ran for the Chicago Marathon.
¡°@ankita_earthy ran her first marathon major and with her best time yet, so proud of my #superwife,¡± wrote Milind Soman as he shared pictures on social media.
¡°It was super cold, super windy but nothing deterred the almost 40,000 participants from reaching that 42.2km finish line! These are amongst the fittest people in the world, the ones who say yes we can, no matter the distance, no matter how slow, the ones with no excuses, the ones who are never afraid to try,¡± he added.
For the unversed, Ankita Konwar wasn¡¯t a fitness freak as husband Milind Soman. She would earlier feel that he was crazy as he would run 25 kilometres. But then, she realised she is young and she should take care of her fitness too. Now, she is enjoying it, it seems.
"I was guilt-tripping," Konwar told the daily. "And, after a time, I started falling sick and I don¡¯t like taking medicines. I started going to the gym and would walk on the treadmill for 2km and excitedly call him. One day, I forgot the gym was shut and I went for a run anyway. I did 4km and was jumping with joy. He was so supportive. Then I did 21km and won! My first 42km was in Athens, my first full marathon. By the 39th kilometre, there were literally tears of joy. Unbelievable," she had earlier told telegraphindia.com.
