The bangalore world 10K

Participated in a 3Km race in the firm i work. Finished in a respectable 14min 30 sec.
Registered for the World 10K at Bangalore, hope for the best. My target is to finish the run within 60 min.

New shoe

I did a lot of research on the right type of shoe that i should wear while training. Best place to get a guide is runnersworld.com, i did that and bought the Adidas Response Cushion 16. Though that cost me a good 4700 rupees, but then you need to invest to get returns :-)

Training is on schedule, but right now in the beginning phase only. I go to run 5 days a week, 1 rest day after two days of run. Do around 20 -30 minutes of slow jog. At this phase building right amount of stamina is much more important then speed.

Happy training :-)

Rediscover the passion to run

It might be a bit ironical, but it always feel great to rediscover great things. This time it is a sport that i always admired - RUNNING. Just starting it alone, but hope a lot of others join me in future.
My plan is to start training for longer runs with more stamina and strength, will start with a 5K, then 10K , next a half marathon and not to end till a full marathon. All needs to be done in a span of 12 months. Ultimate goal is the mumbai marathon's half marathon, to finish it in 1Hr 30 min(10 months from now).
Whats there for others in it ? You can come here and check my progress, ask questions about training, injuries, scheduled races in Inida and anything that comes to you mind and finger tips ....

Happy blogging,
Guru.
