Govardhan Boya, Andhra Pradesh:
I am 100% visually impaired, and this is my second run after a 5k run last year. I ran a few stretches with a volunteer. It's important for me as a cricketer. I have played for AP in the south zone.
Majja Run
Parvathy Reddy, Cubbon Road:
As part of an association of women bikers, I am fighting a common perception — women being confined to riding lightweight gearless scooters. I rode the Bullet to drive that change in prejudice, while also cheering women runners. The organisers have done a commendable job with water stations and first-aid facilities at equal intervals, ensuring everyone's comfort.
Sudarshan, Dakshina Karnataka:
Dressed as Mahishasura, I wanted to convey the importance of unity and group support required to complete the marathon. In solitude, people tend to be selfish and think negatively in silos. But in solidarity, we promote humanity and community building, in alliance with the motive of the run.

Rajat Khurana MD, Asics India:
I started running with
TCS World 10k
in 2011. Running taught me discipline. My milestone achievement was 52 half marathons in 52 weeks. I sell shoes to Indian consumers, so I get all my ideas when I'm on the course, running. I give the feedback to my global team and then, we proceed. When I interview people, the first question that I ask them is, "Do you play any sport?" Because once you're into sport, you can think like a sportsperson and understand consumers.

Running is meditation on the go, and I have been a runner for four years. I am a school teacher and took to running as my husband is a runner. After doing the four-city circuit, I am more confident to travel for runs.
Harjit Singh, Chandigarh: I am 56 and have been running for 12 years — kaccha, pucca, inclined, roads or plains. 360 days a year, I eat at home. Several youths reach out to me to check where I will run and join me. Injuries are inconsequential.

'We made a s*xtape Kim K would envy' – Michael Beasley sends a wild NSFW message to Lance Stephenson after 1 on 1 Game for $100K

Image via: Scott Winters/Icon Sportswire/ Getty Images In an event that was as entertaining off the court as it was on, Michael Beasley stole the spotlight with a dominant one-on-one victory over Lance Stephenson. But an even more jaw-dropping postgame message sparked wide attention. The highly anticipated showdown took place at TNC 02 and saw Beasley walk away with a $100,000 cash prize and some viral bragging rights. But the biggest moment came after the event, when Beasley let loose with a comment that sent the internet into a frenzy. Michael Beasley sends NSFW to Lance Stephenson on Instagram Michael Beasley, a former No. 2 overall NBA draft pick, showed flashes of the promise that once made him the most hyped freshman in the nation. Facing Lance Stephenson, a player equally known for his flair and unfinished NBA story, Beasley proved that while their NBA days may be over, their competitive fire is still burning hot. After sealing the 31-21 victory, Beasley's message to Stephenson wasn't a standard sportsmanship handshake. 'Great game bro,' he began. Then came the line that lit up social media, 'I love you to the moon and back, now grab a cigarette and a towel. We made a s*xtape Kim K would envy.' The message was wild, and for fans, was weirdly affectionate.

'Not a positive memory': Magnus Carlsen haunted by D Gukesh loss; but says 'Indians still need time to prepare'

Magnus Carlsen and D Gukesh (Pic credit: Norway Chess) World number one Magnus Carlsen secured his record-extending seventh Norway Chess title in Stavanger, but not without drama. The title was ultimately decided by Indian prodigy D Gukesh's loss to American Grandmaster Fabiano Caruana in the final round. Carlsen, who drew his final-round game against Arjun Erigaisi from an unfavourable position, finished the tournament with 16 points. Caruana took second place with 15.5, while Gukesh settled for third with 14.5. Arjun, another standout Indian performer, ended fifth with 12.5 points. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Speaking after the tournament, Carlsen acknowledged the rising stature of the young Indian talents but offered a measured perspective. "They are all very good (Gukesh and Arjun), but they still need a little bit of time to prepare," Carlsen told ANI. 'We also have a tournament running simultaneously in Armenia, where Pragg (R Praggnanandhaa) and Aravindh Chithambaram showed very good chess.' — ANI (@ANI) Reflecting on his own journey through the rollercoaster tournament, Carlsen admitted, 'I feel great.

'Doesn't get any bigger': Sinner on facing Alcaraz in French Open final; shuts down Djokovic's attempt at 25th major title

Jannik Sinner beat Novak Djokovic in the French Open semi-finals and will now face Carlos Alcaraz for the title. (AP) Jannik Sinner advanced to his first French Open final after defeating Novak Djokovic in straight sets 6-4, 7-5, 7-6 (7/3) at Roland Garros on Friday. The world number one will face Carlos Alcaraz in Sunday's final, marking the first Grand Slam final between two players born in the 2000s. Sinner's victory ended Djokovic's pursuit of a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title in a match that lasted three hours and 16 minutes on Court Philippe Chatrier. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! "The stage, it doesn't get any bigger now. Grand Slam finals against Carlos, it's a special moment for me and for him, too. He won here last year, so let's see what's coming. But for sure, the tension you feel before the match and during the match is a little bit different in a way, because we are both very young, we are both different, but talented," said Sinner. The Italian, who is yet to drop a set in the tournament, will look to avenge his five-set semifinal loss to Alcaraz from last year's French Open. This victory marked Sinner's fourth consecutive win over the 38-year-old Djokovic, giving him a 5-4 edge in their head-to-head record. The upcoming final ensures that a sixth successive major title will be claimed by either Sinner or world number two Alcaraz, suggesting a generational shift in men's tennis. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like बिक्री के लिए लक्जरी घड़ियाँ (कीमतें देखें) Luxury Watches For Sale | Search Ads अभी खरीदें Undo Alcaraz enters the final with momentum, having won his last four matches against Sinner, including their recent Italian Open final following Sinner's return from a three-month doping ban. "It takes time to compare us with the big three. I believe that tennis or every sport needs rivalries, no? This could be potentially one of these, but there are amazing players coming up," Sinner remarked about comparisons to the rivalries of Djokovic, Nadal, and Federer. Djokovic, who was attempting to become the first man to win a Slam by defeating the world's top three players, will now focus on Wimbledon next month. "This could have been the last match ever I played here, so I don't know. Obviously Wimbledon is next, which is my childhood favourite tournament. I'm going to do everything possible to get myself ready," Djokovic stated. Sinner dominated the first set, securing a break in the fifth game and closing it out with a backhand winner. Despite Djokovic's strong start in the second set, he couldn't break Sinner's serve. The Italian claimed the second set with a resilient service game featuring two aces, including one on a second serve. Djokovic received treatment on his left leg before the third set and later had three set points in the tenth game, but Sinner saved them all.

It's playing against Novak, playing against the best players in the world, you don't get moments where you can relax. He makes you feel that," Sinner reflected on facing Djokovic.
