Vineeta Singh, one of the sharks in the popular show Shark Tank India, has gained widespread recognition. Besides her entrepreneurial endeavors, Vineeta frequently shares her fitness journey on social media. Recently, she took to Instagram to recount her experience participating in a triathlon, which she described as her toughest challenge yet. In her post, Vineeta shared pictures of herself intently focused in the water and posing with her family. She shared about having a panic attack during the triathlon and finishing last, but also emphasized how she persevered and completed the challenge without giving up despite not being in her best physical condition.
Vineeta Singh called it ‘painful’
Sharing the post on Instagram, she wrote a detailed caption, “I’ve always struggled with swimming & unfortunately all triathlons start with swims, that too in open waters. Last weekend’s at Shivaji Triathlon was one of my hardest ever. A windy, choppy lake resulting in a panic attack that lasted almost an hour! In spite of all the pep talk from Sham & Kaushik, I couldn’t breathe, so asked them to carry on. Got on the rescue boat & decided to quit. The idea of quitting was painful but Shivaji Lake looked like the kind of beast I had no courage to tackle that morning.”
She further added, “As I sat shivering on the boat, I saw an incredible 9 year old brave her way through the waves. Although I was ready to throw in the towel & made peace with it – this wasn’t a critical race, I hadn’t trained much so it was OK to head back to my children, tell them mama needed to train harder in open water & try next time.”
She thanked the whole unit at INS Shivaji.
The Shark further added, “Looking back, this race I wasn’t mentally as strong as I could’ve been. Mental strength like other muscles needs regular training. The visualising, the breath-work, the positive thinking could’ve started earlier, but one learns more on tough days & I’m grateful. While most people had finished the race by 10:30am, I was still finishing my run at 12:20 & yet there were 100 Navy soldiers cheering in the heat. God bless the whole unit at INS Shivaji.”
