Pune, India. Building back what life broke — one finish line at a time.

Short version

I'm Aakash Kamdi, based in Pune, India. This site is where I'm documenting a comeback in the open — no hesi, no hype, just the next thing in front of me.

Currently recovering and waiting for my doctor's approval to start running again.

Right now

Figuring life out, honestly. I work a corporate job by day and spend the rest of it trying to become an athlete — not in big leaps, just slightly better every day.

The rules are simple: stay consistent, follow the regime, don't skip the boring days.

The comeback

In December 2025 an ACL injury put things on pause. A hernia operation followed in August 2026. Since then it's been a rebuild from scratch — no shortcuts and no fixed timeline for the long haul, just the discipline of showing up for the next finish line.

The roadmap

The first real target is the 10K. After that, in order:

  1. 10KFirst race back, once my doctor approves running.
  2. 21KHalf marathon. Where it stops being a comeback and starts being training.
  3. HyroxRunning plus strength — proof the whole body came back.
  4. 42KFull marathon. The one that closes the loop.

The full plan lives on the Next Target page.
