Old is not Gold....but " FAUJA"




Hello Friends,


Fauja Singh

“Life begins at 99"


Most for you must be thinking i have got insane but this is the truth in case Fauja Singh, who celebrated his 99th Birthday this year. He hails from Punjab and migrated to Britain few decades ago.


Fauja Singh is the world's oldest marathon runner, sweating it out at most competitions around the world. A thin frame weighing 52 kgs, nearly 6 ft in height, watching a sprightly Fauja on the track is a bewitching sight-incredulous and inspiring.
