Commenting on ‘The Unity Run’, Milind said, “I am all set for the solo run on the occasion of the 75th year of India’s Independence and urge my fellow citizens to actively work towards unity, peace and harmony of our country in any way they can. I have always believed in the message of health and fitness for all through my participation in long distance events in the past, whether it was triathlons like Ironman and Ultraman, or running from Delhi to Mumbai or Ahmedabad to Mumbai. I believe the country can be united through common goals of fitness.”
