      My friends and to all my wonderful readers

      CONTENTS

      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

      Firstly, one of my closest and greatest friends Ann Roelens whose encouragement helped me to become an author and write a novel. I never wanted to become an author.  I changed my viewpoint due to her suggestion. I then decided to make use of my writing skills and take it to next level. Clearly, she has been the first person to ever help me recognize that I had the talent to write creative stuff.

      Secondly, I would like to sincerely thank my friend (upon his request haven’t disclosed his) whose life inspired me to write this novel.

      Special thanks to great tips from Incredible and great businessman and author Grant Cardone and legendary actor Slyvester Stallone.  His Rocky success story had inspired the author very much. Respecting Slyvester Stallone’s Rocky copyright, the Name of Rocky Balboa is not used in this novel and instead, Character called Roney D’Mello has been created. Both share few characteristics in common of unbeaten champions of their sport.

      HIGHLIGHTS

      * BASED ON FEW TRUE events

      *  Although this novel is inspired by few true events, this novel as a whole is purely fictional in nature  and all the characters,  appearing in this novel are purely fictitious ..With the exception of characters called Harikrishnan Natraj and Pravir, rest of the  Names, characters, places, and incidents either are products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.

      * Harikrishnan Natraj and Pravir Shetty are real life friends of the author

      * The theme of the novel is a  central character called Pranay who loses his mother and brother to death due to unfortunate incidents. After several failures and odds, he participates in a 500 km ultramarathon between Paris and Colmar. He keeps on persisting throughout the whole route and does not give up. The result as depicted in the later stages of the novel is also part of this theme. This whole theme cannot be used in any other art work without the written permission of the author. Doing so is a pure violation of all existing copyright laws and hence such violations may be subject to all penalties awarded in the courts as a result of such violations. The author holds a  valid copyright to this fictional novel titled  Pranay’s Journey to Victory.

      .

      *  A Tribute to the legendary Paris Colmar Ultra marathon of 500 kilometers.

      * Rules and regulations of the original event of Paris Colmar ultra marathon may vary from the rules depicted in the novel.
