About Me

My name is Dharmendra. I am a management consultant, freelance writer and running coach based out of Bangalore, India.

​

I have been running for around 22 years, and coaching for around 12 years, as of 2023.


In Jan 2011, I ran the Mumbai Marathon in 4:05:20. In May 2011, I ran the Avenue of the Giants Marathon in 3:09:46. In the 14 weeks between those 2 events while on a sabbatical, my life changed under the guidance of an amazing coach, who helped me qualify for the Boston Marathon. I had so much fun on that journey, that I decided to quit my job and get involved with running full-time. I have coached a few hundred people since and continue to have fun doing so.


I am an occasional quizzer and love filter

The proof of my success with D as a coach is evidenced in my ability to start serious running at the age of 57, run a dozen Half Marathons so far and reduce the timing by 30 minutes from the first to the last one, and under 2 hours. What is more, I have run injury free and remain confident of being able to make running an integral part of my life for a long time
