OK, here is a milestone, for me obviously:)
I ran 11 Kms yesterday evening in a time of 1Hr 8 min.
The weather was good if not perfect. It was raining the whole day, was a bit humid by the evening, no rain and good quality air(because of the rain).
I have been looking for such conditions, so that i can just jump over the mental barrier of the double digits. So, with a plan, i started out slow, remained patient and concentrated on my breathing throughout the run. Overall, a fruitful long run.
I am concentrating on my speed training also. Just trying to run sub 5 min Kms on tempo days and around 4min 30 sec per Km on interval days. Need to keep doing the stuff and do it wholeheartedly.
The next target is to do a 13 Km in the time period of 1Hr 15 min. (That chops off 5 min from my usual long run pace.) I am giving myself 2 weeks for that.
I am enjoying running like never before. It's on!

Wow! you are progressing well. Any upcoming races? You can put your training to test.
Thanks rahul.
There are very less races organized in India, so can't help at that side. Otherwise i would have loved to take up a 10K probly next month.
Although i am preparing for a half marathon coming Jan.
