Bhopal (Madhya Pardesh): Summer morning breaks – dull and grey – but not for lively 67-year-old Anil Kumar Nagaich. Soft-spoken grey-haired Nagaich, a retired civil engineer, jogs over six to seven km twice daily, and as he trots, he hits a shuttlecock with a racket – nonstop.
The shuttlecock never falls to the ground. He moves as fast as a butterfly, and a teenager on a cycle may have to gasp for air to catch him. Nagaich settled in Bhopal in 2008 after resigning from his job as a civil engineer. He prioritizing running in 2017 and has been running continuously without a break since then.
