It’s been a month since the Auroville marathon (didn’t get that sub 3.30 that I wanted) and I’ve gotten pretty lazy. Need some inspiration to start those morning runs again. Any ideas? Must lose sleep over it!
A quick one! 
Just finished reading Chris McDougall’s ‘Born to Run’ and have to say it’s one of the best running books I’ve read. I think it caters to a a lot of audiences - not only runners. It inspires and explains what ultrarunning is all about (other than running)! A must read! You can buy a signed copy of the book here. Happy reading!
It’s been a busy year… and year ends aren’t the most look forward to when it comes to setting goals. The big question looms - do I run longer or faster? I wish I could do both. It’s been 4 years now since I’ve been running, there are quite a few things that still remain targets - like the battle to qualify for Boston or do a sub 3hr marathon. Hopefully these will happen in the next 2 years, so long as I’m not lazy (which has been happening of late) and seriously train. So let me list my goals for the coming year:
1. 5k PB - sub 20 min
2. 10k PB - sub 40 min (39.59 would qualify!)
3. Marathon PB - sub 3.30
4. Find trails outside Bangalore - preferably hills - Kemmangundi, kodachaadri, Edakumeri etc.
That said I think i will update this more often
Going to take up the “DaD challenge” (Design a Day!)
