What's the Adventure ? Kashmir, Jammu & Kashmir, India to Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu, India

Alright guys ! So, what's the adventure ? I keep calling my weight loss journey an adventure but not sharing what is it. I was very hesitant putting this up as I was still thinking Can I do it ? Am I promising too much ? But, you know what; No I am not promising too much. I am not over estimating myself. If I have to achieve my goals I have to do something like this.

Are you guys ready to explore my adventure ?

The plan is to Walk, Jog, Run, Bike Ride (for my friends in India Bike Ride means our own bicycle riding not motorcycle), Treadmill, or any other means of walking related exercise to virtually cover the distance from Kashmir (northern most city) to Kanyakumari (southern most city) in India. I know this is not as adventurous as walking coast to coast here in US living in the tent, camp, motel and walk your way but still as I said earlier for a person like me who is obese, have a family to support this is a good adventure. I know that I am doing it in the comfort of my home.

So, how much exactly is the distance. As per Google Maps, the walking distance from Kashmir to Kanyakumari is 3,778 km (2,361.25 miles). Here is a quick snapshot for your reference,


The timeline to cover this distance of around 2,400 miles is less than 500 days that is approximately 4 to 5 miles a day on an average.

And believe me, I am still doubtful if I can do it. I need a lot of wishes from all of you my friends and blessings of my GOD to help me achieve my goal.

Please keep sending your good wishes and prayers my way.

God, please provide me the courage and strength to achieve the positive results in my weight loss journey. Amen !
