In Limitless Humans, Suki describes his unique and one of the most challenging journey of running 100km Ultra Marathon at the Surf Coast Century in nearly 18 hours and 47 minutes.
“It was roughly 80km mark around 10:30pm, when I started testing my limits. I will never forget this night of September 21, 2019 in my life. It was one of the most fulfilling moment and I lived it to the fullest. It was a life changing experience as I was surrounded by some extra ordinary people on the planet, embracing the joy and camaraderie of trail running. It was an unusual journey in the nature, consisting of towering sea cliffs, remote beaches, national parks and beautiful wildflower hinterland. Yes most of my friends were busy in a rat race making lots and lots of money and I thought of doing something different. This night prepared me for an extreme adventure or I should say prepared me for life. It was probably one of the most challenging assignment, I did in 30 years. I got lost in a dense forest in the dark roughly around the Great Otway National Park.”
But the finish line feeling was epic and the success was due to crucial decisions which suki took. He was also able to interview some extra ordinary athletes on the planet who ran with him at the Surf Coast Century and in other 21 marathons in Mumbai, Bangalore, Himalayas, Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast and the Great Ocean Road. Every runner had a story and this book shares Suki’s personal story of how he recovered from anxiety and stress by running 22 marathons. Singh also redefines what it means to be successful in today’s world and that is by following one’s passion, running marathons, helping others and making human connections in the digital world.
In this deeply personal book, Suki also shares his love for media, film and journalism and their power to shift culture and form a public opinion. He shares how he was able to create an impact in the Australian democracy by appearing twice on national television raising significant issues like alleged political interference at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and the issue of Freedom of Press. And finally he shares how following other hobbies like painting, cooking and of course running has helped him connect the dots and live a meaningful life.
