Getting fit for two

A PASSIONATE athlete and sportsperson in school, I used to pride myself doing strenuous and hardcore exercises.

Representing my school in track and field, badminton, volleyball and a few other sports, I moved on to working out in the gym when I started working. There, I ran the distance on treadmills and lifted weights. Those did wonders to my physique and mental state. I was fit as a fiddle.
