As a teenager growing up in Sant Kabir Nagar in Uttar Pradesh, Vidyanand Yadav aspired to join the Indian Army and first started running to meet their stringent fitness norms. While he eventually failed to make the cut for the armed forces, it helped him discover the runner in him and he now trained his eyes on a new target. Since picking up his first silver medal in 2016, he has gone on to register over 50 podium finishes and is today a full-time runner based out of Navi Mumbai, taking on everything from 10km runs to marathons. He is always on the lookout for new challenges and hopes to inspire others through his achievements.
