Milind Soman pays tribute to Fauja Singh, the legendary 114-year-old marathoner known as the “Turbaned Tornado,” who passed away on July 14 after being hit by a reckless driver near his home. Soman reflects on Singh’s extraordinary journey, starting marathons at 89, running to heal from personal loss, and inspiring millions with his discipline and spirit. His death highlights India’s unsafe roads and the urgent need for pedestrian safety. Singh’s legacy is not just athletic but deeply human, reminding us that running is a form of meditation and resilience. His life calls for action: safer streets, stricter laws, and respect for every life. (PC: The Mirror & The Indian Express)
