The Start of a Life-Changing Journey
In 2018, Dhiraj Bhandary faced a daunting diagnosis: a rare, life-threatening disease coupled with type 2 diabetes. Determined to take control of his health, Bhandary embarked on a transformative journey.
Embracing a New Lifestyle
Bhandary adopted distance running and revamped his lifestyle. Over four years, he completed four full marathons and 85 half marathons, averaging one half marathon per month. His commitment led to a significant weight loss of 21kg, from 96kg in 2018 to 75kg in 2020, stabilizing at around 78kg today. Remarkably, he was able to stop his diabetes medication in 2020.
Inspiring Family and Overcoming Challenges
Bhandary’s journey also inspired his wife and 12-year-old son to start running. His transformation began after being diagnosed with Fournier’s gangrene, a severe bacterial infection that can cause tissue death.
