ABOUT MIDLFIE RUNNERS CIC
My name is Raji, and I am the founder of Midlife Runners CIC and a qualified England Athletics coach & Certification in Diet & Nutrition & Certified Weight Loss Coach Our organization aims to positively impact individuals over the age of 40 and 50 by promoting running as a way of life through encouragement, mentoring, and coaching. We strongly believe that running can enhance self-esteem, improve physical and mental health, and contribute to overall well-being. My personal experience with running has inspired me to establish Midlife Runners CIC. Growing up, I was discouraged from participating in sports due to my physical abilities. Despite having no prior experience in running, I began my journey in my forties and it has helped me develop as a person and improve my physical and mental well-being. I completed my first marathon in 2018. In 2019, I conquered one of the highest peaks in the Himalayas. Running has transformed my life in numerous ways, including weight loss and maintenance, and overall improvement. I have helped others, family & friends to find a new lease on life through running. My enthusiasm lies in assisting individuals in their middle age and particularly those who consider themselves underdogs to discover contentment, fitness, well-being, and self-assurance through running.
