Major DP Singh lost his right leg in an explosion during Operation Vijay in Kargil in 1999. But he did not let it slow him down. 

He started running on a prosthetic leg in 2009. In the last few years, he has been a regular participant at marathon races and inspired many like him to take up the sport.
