The story of Active Holiday Company is just like any runner's journey - full of hard work and dedication, and lots of achievements too!
In 2008, Gauri was a Regional Director (South Asia & Middle East) for a major touring company. However, when her squash partner - a new business owner - began missing their games, she took up running instead. It was flexible, could be done anywhere, anytime, and she didn't need anyone else to do it. She was instantly hooked.
When Gauri turned 40, she celebrated by running six half marathons in six different places, including a run to the lowest point on earth (The Dead Sea Ultra Run in Jordan) and a trek to the base camp of the towering Mt. Everest. This adventure became a turning point in her life.
On returning to Bangalore, she left her high-profile job, with its various perks, to start Active Holiday Company. She even bought a hybrid bicycle to replace her old car!
Despite her enthusiasm, she found it hard to find fellow travelers and runners for the first few international marathon races. These times remain a mix of good and bad memories for her.
Back then, her motto was if she couldn't find anyone to join a marathon tour, she would run it herself. Thankfully, this never had to happen. However, the company ran out of money pretty quickly, and her friends had to step in to help.
Slowly but surely, more races, cycling trips and hiking tours were added, and they started getting more participants. Though startups are usually given 1000 days to succeed or fail, it took Active Holiday Company almost double that time to break even!
