Amazing fitness goals, but sometimes it feels a bit unrelatable for the average person. Most of us are struggling to find 30 minutes for a walk. That said, the scenery around Kolhapur is stunning and it's great they are promoting our historical sites.

Panhala Fort is a gem! Kudos to them for choosing this route. The climb must have been brutal but the views from the top are absolutely worth it. This makes me want to plan a cycling trip to Maharashtra's forts. 🚵‍♂️

I love how they combine adventure, fitness, and culture. It's not just about the physical challenge but also about connecting with the land and its history. The picture at the statue is very powerful.

Respect for Baji Prabhu Deshpande! He held the fort against thousands with just a few hundred men. To cycle there and remember his sacrifice is a fantastic way to stay fit. True Maratha spirit! Jai Maharashtra! 🇮🇳

Their discipline is next level. Running through 3 countries in 2 days and now this? While I can't do that, it does push me to be a little more active. Maybe start with a 5km cycle this weekend!
