Two days ahead of Milind Soman’s marathon run in Delhi, called Lifelong Fight Lazy Run, ETimes Lifestyle spoke exclusively to the actor about his fitness journey and how he wishes to inspire others to move and be fit. Milind who is among the fittest people in India calls himself ‘lazy’, “I am also lazy but I fight it every single day to remain fit.”
Talking about health and fitness, Milind shares that people don’t know the difference between the two. “People think fitness is about 6 packs, but it is not. Even when the concept of fitness wasn't articulated, it was my life. I was trying to get better everyday at what I was doing. I realize today the foundation it set for me. It helped me understand my relationship with myself and with people around me, all came from being a competitive swimmer. Today I understand the importance of that. The calmness I get from it, my ability to perceive situations in a balanced way. That's fitness. To see things positively, so you can move on in a better way. So it's in the mind.”
