- For 19-year-old athlete Unnathi Aiyappa, a career in sports was almost destined. Born to Pramila Aiyappa, a legendary heptathlete who represented India in two Olympics and won medals at the Asian Games, and B.P. Aiyappa, an accomplished athlete and coach, Unnathi believes running is in her blood.
Emerging as a bold and determined athlete, Unnathi isn’t afraid to make decisions that shape her journey. After a lukewarm 2023, she bounced back with an extraordinary 2024, winning nine medals in just seven months across domestic and international events.
Now poised to compete in the seniors category, Unnathi is ready to take on a new challenge: transitioning from 200m hurdles to the demanding 400m hurdles.
Follow her inspiring journey as she continues to make waves in the world of athletics!

So nice to see a family embracing sports.
Make us proud, girl. You are already our champion , seeing you on the podium is what we are waiting for and we know you will do it. Big appreciation to your parents too.
Damn, saw her today at Kanteerva stadium even on a Sunday! Inspired by the work ethic, rooting for her!🎉
So cool. Best of luck Unnathi. And more strength to her parents!
Very best all your dreams will come true the whole of Karnataka behind you

they are the backbone of our families;
COORGIS; Have done extremely great for the nation;

It's not a question if Unnathi will win medals! The question is how many Asian and Olympic medals she going to win! Her hard-work and dedication is bound to bring fame and glory to Unnathi and India!
Best Wishes,you will be able to achieve it.
My only concern is that Women’s 400m hurdles is super competitive at the Olympic level. Sydney McGlauglin Marone and Femke Bol are setting world records regularly. But I really wish you the very best Unnathi. I’ll be rooting for you.
Genetics also plays an important role when it comes to sport not just practice. Indian genetics aren't conditioned for that since our ancestors were farmers and suffered a lot of famine.
Africa is always in a state of famine!! India never ever experienced or experiences famines like Africa does for centuries but still they produce the greatest runners always. it is pure genetics and nothing else.
what a joke @@FizZ2864
@@krishnaswami346 lol no famines in India? 😂😂 Do you how many famines india had?? Africans follow a meat diet compared to Indians. They don't have any cultural restrictions like Indians do with vegetarianism. Genetics is a result of the environment and food. Indians have pot belly due to multiple famines. South Koreans started growing after the country boomed financially.
@@FizZ2864 when was the last famine in India ? Africa is perenially in famine. India is predominantly a meat eating country. about 500 million would be non meat eaters which leaves out about a billion meat eaters in the country. A billion is equal to the population of entire africa which is all 53 countries put together and still India has not produced one single runner who can compete with the africans?? what does that say??
All the best Unnathi, make us all proud, work hard and make sure to stay fit. Once again, all the best
congratulations on your journey until now
best wishes for your future.
we are always rooting for you.
Amazing to see how much effort, dedication and determination it takes to excel in Atheletics. Lovely to see the whole family immersed in it. Best wishes for them.💐🙏
