Nearly 11 years after his retirement in November 2013, cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar remains an active inspiration. On Sunday, October 27, Sachin posted a heartwarming video showing him encouraging marathon runners in the final stretch of the Ageas Federal Kochi Spice Coast Marathon. Despite stepping away from cricket, the 51-year-old legend still finds time to motivate others towards fitness and resilience.

In the video shared on X (formerly Twitter) , Sachin Tendulkar was seen having chats with marathon runners and poses for photos. He shared words of encouragement to those pushing themselves to reach the marathon’s finish line. His presence created excitement among the athletes, who were thrilled to be cheered on by one of India’s most beloved sports figures. Sachin’s tweet reflected his admiration for their determination, saying, 

“While on my way back from Kochi, I stopped by to say Hi  and cheer on some athletes, who were on the last leg of their @AgeasFederal Kochi marathon. In their own way, they are championing the cause of a fit and healthy India. Participation is the first step towards preparation, and many people like them started their fitness journeys today. They’ve pushed themselves to complete the marathon, and this persistence itself makes them winners. “


Sachin Tendulkar applauded the participants, noting how their determination makes them champions in their own right. His message focused on how small steps, like marathon participation, help individuals embark on healthier lifestyles.
