About & Contact

Hello, I’m Anurag.

I didn’t start my running journey as a podium-finisher or a natural athlete. I started as someone who simply wanted to see if a “big guy” could go the distance. Over the years, that curiosity turned into a passion that has seen me cross finish lines from the Mumbai Marathon to the hills of Satara.

FatMarathoner.com was born out of a simple realization: the running world is often filled with elite athletes and “perfect” bodies. But what about the rest of us? The ones balancing a corporate job in Gurgaon, managing family life and navigating health hurdles like Mitral Regurgitation while still wanting to hit the pavement?

This blog is a professional yet personal record of my journey. Here, you’ll find:

• Honest Gear Reviews: I test shoes and watches based on how they perform for heavy-duty, long-distance running.

• Health & Longevity: My personal experiences navigating heart health and fitness.

• Marathon Strategy: Real-world advice for training, hydration and mental grit.

Whether you’re training for your first 5k or your tenth marathon, I’m glad you’re here. Let’s find the finish line together.

I am one of the Top 5 Fitness bloggers in India according to Mumbai Live. I have also been featured as one of the Top 15 Health, Fitness & Lifestyle creator in India according to Blogmint. I have been writing on health, fitness and marathon-related topics for over 10 years now and regularly contribute to other health-based websites and blogs such as Aditya Birla Health.
