Run, Burn, Run

So a couple of days ago, due to an extended meeting, I missed my evening cab. (Actually, I called the driver, told him to wait for a few more minutes; but some things just have to happen: he thought I told him to please leave without me.) Anyway, what happened was kinda good: I had been wanting to start gymming but I kept procrastinating; now I finally started. Boy, loosening up after so long felt so damn good. It’s not all that easy, though, I tell ya. Only two days of gymming, and my body aches.

Anyway, did I tell you that I’m doing this, in part, in preparation for the Bangalore International Marathon? I’m doing the Celebration Run—seven kilometers. Man, running is not easy. Five minutes of jogging (in the gym), and I felt like I had run a few miles. Maybe I’ll complete the marathon with some of those running the full marathon, but that’s okay. What I decided was that since part of the run is on MG road, maybe when I get tired I can go have some beer.

beer is dehydrating.

Way to go! Get good shoes before you do the marathon, though.

All the very best! Reminds me of my participation in the Hyderabad 10K Run. Read about it here.

BTW, was nice meeting you in the last Hyd LJ Meet.

78 minutes is good! I’d be happy if I finish in under two hours. :-)

Likewise, dude. I’m hoping I have some reason to come to Hyderabad again, soon.

it 's actually quite good that you are going to be a part of this marathon. I think it's more about the spirit and the attitude than the ability to do it. But it would really help you if you continue to run everyday. Small-distance, long -distance whatever.
Am going to be a part of this too! So see you there. 'n happy first marathon!
