WINNING TOGETHER: LESSONS FROM THE ARMY

Major D. P. Singh

youtube
BLADE RUNNER, FORMER INDIAN ARMY OFFICCER

Major D P Singh, an inspiring story of India's Blade Runner. On July 15, 1999, a young major was grievously injured in Kargil during Operation Vijay. Surgeons declared him dead in the army hospital; then managed to save him after amputating his leg. Today, that same soldier has run 12 half marathons, a feat as miraculous as it is inspirational.

Every time he crosses that finish line, Major D P Singh doesn't merely win a battle against his beleaguered body -- he sets new standards of bravery and endurance."When I learnt I'd lost my leg, I told myself that this would be yet another challenge in my life," says Singh. He endured 10 painful years of recuperation thereafter.

"I just couldn't get used to the sympathetic glances I used to get from people. After a while, I was desperate to change that," he says. Although in his earlier days he'd been more into rally sports, Singh decided to take up running.

Major Singh is popularly called the “Indian Blade Runner” and is the first amputee marathon runner of India besides holding several laurels including being a Limca record holder.
