“There is no help from government for sports-persons. I earnRs.400-500 per day from the tea shop to run my family,” Kalaimani told news agency ANI. Even as her responsibilities don’t allow her to run full time, she doesn’t miss her morning workout session and runs for 21 kilometres every day as part of her practice.
