Bengaluru | Thursday | 23rd January, 2020

Summary:

Monika Monalisa ByExpress News ServiceBENGALURU: B Srikant walked his first walkathon just six years ago at the age of 73 and was immediately hooked. Srikant’s first walkathon for the year will be the Oxfam Trailwalker India, which takes place from February 7-9. Though one of the oldest participants at the walkathon, Srikant can still give any of his co-participants a run for their money. After he finishes his morning routine, he leaves for his routine walk by 6am. This 28-year-old will be walking barefoot throughout the walkathon, to create awareness on the benefits of the age-old tradition of walking barefoot, which is unfortunately forgotten today..
