"Greatness is never achieved from the confines of your comfort zone."

Nayana Gadkari is an RRCA-certified coach with RHWB and lives in the beautiful town of Hillsborough, NJ, with the two leading men in her life—her son Rishi and her dear husband Abhi. She is a Director in the Human Resources function in the healthcare diagnostics industry, a career she quite literally stumbled upon, but now loves.

Nayana finds immense joy in caring for her multitude of plants, baking bread, and meditating. She is a strong advocate of self-care and is mindful of where her mental energy flows. She believes that to truly care for and give to others, one must first practice abundant self-care. Running is one of her self-care rituals; it’s one of the few times in her day when she feels fully present and grounded.

Nayana recalls growing up in Mumbai with the perception that running was a sport measured only in superlatives, meant only for the strongest and fastest. However, 13 years ago, she met an incredible group of people who shifted that paradigm and showed her how life-changing running could be. Since then, she has participated in numerous half marathons, marathons (including Chicago, NYC, Marine Corps, and Philly), and even one ultramarathon.

Nayana sees her recently completed New York City Marathon as a spiritual journey filled with acts of kindness, compassion, and sheer determination. This experience has inevitably changed how she wants to run and give back to the community. Season 10 will be her fifth season with RHWB and her third season as a coach.
